 * I want to create a quotation form. The visitor fills in one or two details, and
   the form goes off, calculates a result, and then displays a result and forwards
   information by email.
 * Any obvious place to start? The forms plugins seem inadequate to the task, and
   I can find nothing obviously relevant in the documentation.

 * Thank you.
 * I had already checked that it looked good and mentioned allowing Ajax (I’ll learn
   anything), but there is nothing that I have found in the documentation to suggest
   that or how it actually might be used.
 * I suppose I am asking how to integrate within WP a system where a form is created(
   easy-ish) which transmits the information collect to an external/internal php
   script which does the various calculations (easy) and returns the resulting values
   to a page within a wordpress system? It is possibly the last bit which is the
   real issue.
 * I am tearing my hair out when trying to find my way around the WP documentation.
 * I do appreciate that I have to do nearly all of this myself, but a pointer to
   somewhere which explains the basics would give me something to go on.

 * I’m wary to recommend much as I’m not sure how much testing/investigating/coding
   you will need to do to make it work, but will take a chance and suggest you look
