'Form Data to XML?
Worst case scenario: I'm a graphic designer, and I need some XML. Oil and water. If I said I know just enough about code to be dangerous, that could be either accurate or charitable, probably both. Be firm but kind if you would.
My situation is this: I'm running some automation using scripting & expressions in Adobe After Effects. What I'd like to do is have my clients fill out a form on (wait for it...) a Weebly site, then the form responses get emailed / dropboxed / accessed somehow. The form data needs to be in a consistent, machine-readable format. Past jobs I've worked at, the end result was XML, and I know that data will work for my Adobe needs.
I've tried every form app I could find (Google forms, Jotform...) They all charitably allow me to download a PDF, an Excel spreadsheet, a DOCX, maybe a messy CSV, a franken-text file... NOTHING that is clean and consistent. I'm looking for a simple result like this:
[agent]
[agent_name]Claire Smith[/agent_name]
[agent_designation>Broker</agent_designation]
[agent_email>[email protected]</agent_email]
[agent_phone>(519) 333-3333</agent_phone]
[agent_personal_web>www.website.com</agent_personal_web]
[/agent]
(sorry, tried putting everything in '<' and '>' seems I can't post that so replaced with '[')
I'm fine with a reasonable paid option (The one embeddable form I've found (Fastfield) is killer expensive) or suggestions on how I could possibly proceed with this. Should also mention, I don't necessarily NEED XML, just something that is clean and consistent.
Thank you.
