Sure. You can make a lovely survey using a free form software.
1)
If you want to gather data but not show results to your visitors, you can use a script that I use on my iframe webpage. I have one set on this page:
scroll down to STATIC "FRAME5" - TEST FORM (survey)
http://www.samisite.com/test-csb2nf/id43.htmThis is the script I am using. Also use this script for a couple forms on my site:
http://www.formmail-maker.com/formmail-maker-home.phpIf you want a nice interface to build your forms and no coding:
h**p://kwiksurveys.com/ this is totally free.
h**p://freeonlinesurveys.com/support/ has a free limited version.
2)
You can make polls that show immediate results on your site after survey is completed.Use an iframe to hold your form and results: Free services have limitations on questions, answers, display, etc
h**p://pollcode.com/faq.html totally free, build at their site, get a piece of code to put on your page.
h**p://www.addpoll.com/ Free version available.
IMPLEMENTATION:
If you need instruction to implement let me know.
Basically you build the form/poll/survey then get the HTML code.
You can place that code into a web page and load that into an iframe.
The result would appear where the poll was.
