So... you want to capture user details

This module will be built into your website, usually in a sidebar  which will appear on every page.

It consists of a form which will collect the users first name and email address. It checks dynamically for blank and incorrectly formated inputs. It's important not to ask for too much information as this will inhibit sign-ups.

The form includes a captcha code. You may have heard of these or had some experience using them. Yes we know they can be difficult to read sometimes and nobody really likes them but they do a very useful job of excluding spammers and automated programs adding useless or malicious data to your database.

On satisfactory acceptance of the users information the system can send an automated welcome email.
