How to Add Simple Math Calculations to Your Form

Are you looking for a way to incorporate basic math calculations into your Wufoo page? For example – if you have currency fields, and you want them to automatically add, subtract, or calculate percentages as the user enters in new info – you may be wondering if there’s a way to do this.

While we currently don’t have a calculating feature built-in, we’ll show you the workaround so you can incorporate basic math calculations into your forms.

Steps to include a simple math calculator on your form

To add the simple math calculation feature, you’ll need to host the form on your own site. Then, follow these steps:

1. Write the script to submit the data to Wufoo through the submit API
2. Program the script to do the calculations
3. Display the calculated number when the user is redirected to the next page

That’s all there is to it. Enjoy the calculating!
