Hello,

 

At the request of one of my clients (web development) I am trying to build an interactive web form similar to this website, at my clients request ...https://www.lemonade.com/products?f=1

 

I am good with wordpress and building fillable regular pdf forms, but I am wondering if I can accomplish my clients wishes by using InDesign and Acrobat Pro. 

 

Any help is greatly appreciated!

HTML is a far superior framework for web forms.

InDesign can't build a decent ordinary webpage, let alone a web form. The program was never designed to create HTML code.

I'm curious why you even conidered InDesign for this type of web project?

in5, as great as it is,  does not offer a forms facility. Ajar recommend:

If it's going on the web, why would you want to build it with InDesign? Use one one the very capable Wordpress plugins such as Gravity Forms, Formidable Forms or Caldera Forms.
