Receive form responses

Live demo: https://andreterron-form_demo.web.val.run/

Create a form that posts to your val:

<form action="https://andreterron-form_handler.web.val.run" method="post"> <label for="username">Val Town username:</label> <input name="username" type="text"> <button type="submit">Submit</button> </form>

And get your results stored as an array:

// set by andreterron.form_handler at 2023-08-10T21:04:43.364Z let formResponses = [{ "username": "andreterron", }, { "username": "stevekrouse", }];

Usage

  1. Fork this val and click the 🔒 to set it as "Unlisted"
  2. Open the val menu → Endpoints → "Copy web endpoint"
  3. Use that url as the action attribute of your form
