 * Hi thanks
 * with the default tag i can only see the form without the wording guide for the
   input boxes. For example I dont know were to fill the name as i can only see 
   the input boxes but no words at all.

 * For this you need to add placeholders for your text boxes
    or add labels before
   the text boxes.

 * One more thing Neha_jer
 * When I fill and submit the form I cannot see the details I have submitted in 
   the email address which is linked to this form. I am receiving more like blank
   mails without the name, surname, tel, email etc. How can I resolve that?
 * I tried the mail manual but i am a bit confused here
 * thanks a lot

 * Hii INTABA,
 * All you have to do is click on “Insert Tag” when you generate a text box. The
   value filled by user will automatically go to message body of email.
