I saw a msg board that had what I will call a pre-formatted msg post. I believe you had to click a separate button for this type of msg post. The prompts were already there when the screen came up and all the poster had to do was "fill in the blanks."
Is this something doable in FUD? How would one go about doing that?

I suspect you'd need to create a new form, post_formated.php for example, which would be a series of promts asking the questions based on which the message will be generated. Once the user submits you can either submit the data via POST to post.php or do your own post processing like post.php does.

Well the simplest way would be to build a simple form that asks those questions, when submitted that form will internally do a POST to the post.php form which will be the one to create the actual message on the forum.

My company, Advanced Internet Designs Inc. does various custom forum developments for people who require the extra features unique for their sites or work environment. If you are really interested in such a development shoot me off an email to ilia(at)prohost(dot)org with your spec for what exactly you want to do.
Of course anyone familiar with php and object oriented programming could do such a mod for you as well.
