Daniel BöhmerDear web form creators!When you provide a multiline <textarea> input field please do not squash my fondly edited paragraphs into one big mess of a single line.Why this is so awful you ask?- Bullet point lists get completely obliterated.- I intentionally split my text into meaningful paragraphs and you remove that context.- It’s extra dumb if you don’t add single spaces between those joined linesKind regardsYour users<a href="https://ieji.de/tags/html" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#html</a> <a href="https://ieji.de/tags/textarea" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#textarea</a> <a href="https://ieji.de/tags/webdesign" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#webdesign</a> <a href="https://ieji.de/tags/webform" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#webform</a> <a href="https://ieji.de/tags/webforms" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#webforms</a>

Mark Wyner Won’t Comply :vm:Curious what y’all call this type of form input. I have my own name (won’t share just yet as to not taint the answers), but I rarely find that everyone uses the same name for it.While I’m primarily targeting UI designers/developers, I’m happy to see answers from anyone.What do y’all call it?<a href="https://mas.to/tags/UI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#UI</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Design" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Design</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Development" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Development</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/FrontEnd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FrontEnd</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/WebDesign" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WebDesign</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/WebForms" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WebForms</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/HTML" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#HTML</a>

I took one of your surveys, because I love you. And I'm sharing this with you, because I love you.You have a number of these questions that should use radio buttons (single answer) but instead use checkboxes (multiple answers).Talk with your devs. They can fix this for you.<a href="https://mas.to/tags/UI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#UI</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Development" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Development</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Coding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Coding</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/WebDev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WebDev</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/WebForms" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WebForms</a>

Mark Wyner Won’t Comply :vm:Because so many web forms are built with bugs and oddities, my trust in their integrity is low. My process looks like this:1. Enter information 2. Select/copy long-form text 3. Submit formIf there’s more than one long-form input I’ll copy/paste from both into a text document before submitting.Anyone else have this relationship with forms? It may just be my OCD.<a href="https://mas.to/tags/WebForms" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WebForms</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Technology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Technology</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/OCD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OCD</a>

Mark Wyner Won’t Comply :vm:Anyone else feel like this? I have OCD, so it’s probably worse for folks like me. But, still. I’m curious if anyone else gives pause before using that return key.<a href="https://mas.to/tags/UX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#UX</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/UI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#UI</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/WebForms" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WebForms</a>

Mark Wyner Won’t Comply :vm:Hi, friends. This informal poll will help inform some formal research I’m doing to make web forms more usable for all of us. I’d love your input for posterity. Maybe a boost, too?—Did you know:Checkboxes are used for multiple-choice answers and are squares by default.Radio buttons are used for single-choice answers and are circles by default.<a href="https://mas.to/tags/Usability" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Usability</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/WebForms" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WebForms</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Accessibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Accessibility</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/UI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#UI</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/UIDesign" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#UIDesign</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/UIDev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#UIDev</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/FrontEnd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FrontEnd</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/HTML" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#HTML</a>
