I have field agents that need to submit a daily “report” to me. They gather information that includes credit card information. The most efficient way to handle this is via an online form of some sort…preferrably a stand alone one, similar to google documents.
To protect the information of the customer, I think it’s necessary to have these web forms require SSL (Security).
I’ve run in to issues with google docs…not being able to edit after submission as well as the order being inaccurate. I’ve run in to issues with other forms where you need to have a website just to use the web form.
Is there anything out there that will allow me to create a web form, where a field agent can go to a url for instance and access the form, fill it out, and send it to me securely?
The next question is price. This isn’t meant to be a high volume issue, and it doesn’t merit a big investment on my part. I’m looking for something free, if not close to it…any suggestions?
“Think it over: On one side of this city of Dallas people pay $69 for a margarita..the other side of town the homeless scrounge for scraps..What would be the civilized response to such a disparity?..: In 1960 the gap in wealth between the top 20 percent .. and the bottom 20 percent was 30 fold. Now it is 75 fold. Stock prices and productivity are up..CEO salaries are soaring, but ordinary workers aren’t sharing in the profits they helped generate. Their incomes aren’t keeping up with costs. More Americans live in poverty—37 million, including 12 million children. Twelve million children!..America’s last among the highly developed countries in each of seven measures of inequality. Our GDP outperforms every country..except Luxembourg..among industrialized nations we are at the bottom in functional literacy and dead last in combating poverty..regular Americans are working longer and harder than workers in any other industrial nation, but it’s harder and harder for them to figure out how to make ends meet..how to send the kids to college..how to hold on securely in their old age. If we’re all in this together, what’s a civilized response to these disparities?.America’s a broken promise. America needs fixing.” Bill Moyers
I have a big Konica Minolta bizHub 750 scanner, printer, fax machine. Is there a way for a user to send a job to the printer, walk the the printer, enter a code, only then will the printer printer the job? Apparently “User Authentication” in the printer properties is not the answer.
Thanks in advance
Hi!
I need website with a similar design to these websites, with the ability to access wiki like documents as well as google calendar on a secure basis. Nothing flashy, just a page for physicians to access data securely. Examples:
http://medstaging.stanford.edu/trachea/
http://iusurgery.net/
Need:
Area to upload word files, other docs
Secure login
Access to google calendar built in would be great
Wiki type pages as well
Must also be able to have a page like this:
http://www.iuent.net/textpage.html (I need to be able to page people)
Also need the ability for people to login to the secure areas.
in reply please send me an e-mail at ineed.designer@gmail.com

My current situation:
1—Paid $250 to a scam artist for a pair of shoes (don’t harass me about my spending habits! I can afford it!) Shoes never sent, Filed dispute, no response, week or so later escalated to claim. Seller told me to drop the dispute and he would ship. BS. I have documentation of all conversations. Result, Im waiting, but for now im out $250.
2- Bought True religion jeans, advertised as real, sold as fake. same response and actions. jeans received, and can easily prove they are fake. no results yet, filed dispute, now a claim, left negative feedback. im out ~$90.
3- I had a bank transfer go bad, so my PP account is $300 negative. Im am at a possible $340 loss. so I never added funds so at worst case scenario, I lose only $40.
I want to buy stuff, but im fed up with paypal at this point. Is there another way to securely send money? i heard postal service money order? how do these work? what about bad/unsent claims? Will i be covered similarly?
Can I still send payments from my linked bank account with the neg balance?
The people I had transactions with are no longer active on ebay or the forum where i was scammed. I fear they have emptied their accounts. Will i still get my money?
Thanks
Oh, and is the neg balance that I am using for collateral worth it? is it hurting my situation?
In response to YAGURU’s excellent answer, to clear up any confusion, and misrepresentation of character…please excuse my improper english, I simply do not care to respond in proper english.
“start buying clothes in a store like a normal person.”
I do. Georgetown DC is my closet. I just had to add more than i can get in person. dip$hit. less than 10% of my wardrobe is from online sources. And will always be that way bcoz i prefer to try stuff on. you are making ASSumptions out of your a$$.
BTW im a college student (paying to learn to better myself) and my corvette is in the repair shop getting repairs to the paint that some jealous a$$ like u probably ruined to begin with.
“Why are you trying to buy cheap stuff if you are so great and can afford expensive things.”
I think im the greatest i can be. You should think you are too unless u have issues. you sound kinda jealous
“I think you deserve what you got for being so vain.”
yeah…
i have a similar conclusion:
F* you too..
I just got off the line w/ a paypal rep. She said im covered up to $250 on the ~$90 jeans. but im not coverod on the shoes because it was not a ebay transaction. They said they will send him over to debt collection, and will ask soon if i had been paid. Where can I file a criminal or similar charge aginast this dude? I think im just going to pay the balance so i dont mess up my credit.
thanks for the fast and generally very informative replies.
I did all my research. I was paranoid about these people. the ebay dude had 125+ 100% positive feedback. the other dude had references on Nikeskateboarding.org. and since the transaction was thru paypal I assumed i was safe and covered up to $250. The jeans are no prob. I am covered no matter what, the shoes, I am “covered” but not guaranteed anything
