Hi, I’m a total n00b trying his hand at Coda for the first time 🙂  
I would like to create a **public** page where any interested reader can input their email in a form and send it to a database (maybe a Coda table?) so that I can later contact them.

How could I build this?

My current strategy is to have a table where users can write their email and click a button.  
The button stores the entered email into a second, hidden table, and then resets the value of the first table to look clean.

Problem.

If I allow ANYONE WITH THE LINK to view and play… the changes they make are NOT truly saved, and I get nothing.  
If I allow them to edit… they can mess the page ☹

How can I work around this?

Ok, solved it by creating a google form.  
It got embedded into the coda doc.  
And that’s the long and short of it 😛  
It’s not the prettiest solution, but it works.
