How it works…
![Page 4: Online Surveys A Look at Cardiff-TeleForm](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062221/568134ea550346895d9c2467/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Three different applications
Software is divided into three parts: Designer view –where the preparation of survey
takes place Reader view – where the scanning and
recognition of data takes place Verifier view – confirms and verifies the data

response you desire

Survey in Designer Set-Up
![Page 8: Online Surveys A Look at Cardiff-TeleForm](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062221/568134ea550346895d9c2467/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Exporting to HTML
Once the survey is complete and all your corrections are made …
You then export the file to an .htm file using the TeleForm export designator
![Page 9: Online Surveys A Look at Cardiff-TeleForm](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062221/568134ea550346895d9c2467/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Export process
![Page 10: Online Surveys A Look at Cardiff-TeleForm](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062221/568134ea550346895d9c2467/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Process
Once you export the survey then it immediately opens in HTML+ format as an .htm file
You can then look at the finished internet survey for presentation purposes.
At this point you can open your “Notepad” and make any changes or attributes to the source code as needed.

HTML form
![Page 12: Online Surveys A Look at Cardiff-TeleForm](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062221/568134ea550346895d9c2467/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
HTML format
Each form is exported to a single .htm file regardless of the pages in the original survey.
Any graphics are saved as separate files and assigned sequential numbers.
The file produces your URL or whatever submission method you have set up.
![Page 13: Online Surveys A Look at Cardiff-TeleForm](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062221/568134ea550346895d9c2467/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Collection and Retrieval
You can either set-up a drive on your network or have responses emailed to you.
There are two test submit methods: Mailto (Netscape only)- does not need CGI
script Cardiff test script – CGI located at Cardiff and
can be used for test scripts. ASP – requires specific operating system or
Web server software.

Collection and Retrieval
When a participant “clicks” on the URL, the survey pops up and is ready to be accessed.
Once the survey is completed, the participant hits “Submit”.
The data is then captured in the designated drive or emailed via a TeleForm program.
The TeleForm program processes the data and stores it on a subdirectory on the web server.

Retrieval
Downloading of data is permitted by using the TeleForm Internet Server.
This process allows the TeleForm server to go out in the directory where the files are being stored, grab it and bring it down to the file that you have designated for data population (Excel, SPSS, etc).

Cons of TeleForm
Software is unique – configuration can be a problem
Manipulation of source code can be tricky for users who do not have HTML background
Expensive $3,500 for Elite version Upgrades run about $1,500 Tech support runs about $900 a year
