How to make an application of the fill-in fields?

Hi.
You know, my question is, how to set up the option, that if members will make ,,new topic" in one forum, and their post will be almost created with some fill-in fields and only question.
I mean something like this:

Is it possible to make that?

It is possible, but I don't think you can have that many fields. I tried making doing that, but had no success. I can make it 3-4 fields max. Username, Subject, Description(Optional), and Post Message. The one I made for my forums is all HTML and it will post to a specific category that I specify. Is this what you are looking for?

Code below is for the application I made that posts to a thread. (create new html page and use page headers & footers) You will also need to change the css classes to yours or everything will look funny.

So you want what I have but, have it in a thread?

Code:: <html> <head>  <body oncontextmenu="return false;" ondragstart="return false;">  <STYLE TYPE="text/css"> .deepsea { background-image:url('http://i49.tinypic.com/e7jl1z.png'); } </STYLE> <br>    <form action="/posting.forum" method="post" name="post" onSubmit="return vB_Editor['text_editor'].prepare_submit(0, 0)"> <table width="100%" border="4" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="60" align="center" BGCOLOR="#2A2B3A" BORDERCOLOR="black" class="deepsea">   <tr> <td> <br> </td> </tr> </table>   <table class="forumline" width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <th height="28" class="thHead" colspan="2" valign="bottom"><strong>APPLICATION QUESTIONS (ALL APPLICANTS MUST ANSWER THESE):</strong> </th> </tr> <tr> <td class="row1" width="22%">   <span class="gen"><b>Username</b> </span> </td> <td class="row2" width="78%"> <span class="genmed"> <input class="post" type="text" name="username" value="Guest" size="25" tabindex="1"> <font size="-2"><--- Can Be Anything (Until You Register)</font> </span> </td> </tr>   <tr> <td class="row1" width="22%"> <span class="gen"><b>Subject</b> </span> </td> <td class="row2" width="78%"> <span class="gen"> <input class="post" style="width:450px" type="text" name="subject" value="" size="45" maxlength="255" tabindex="2" title="The length of the title for this topic must be ranging between 5 and 255 characters" onKeyPress="if (event.keyCode==13){return false;}"> <font size="-2"><--- Example: John Doe's Application</font> <script type="text/javascript">input = document.getElementsByName('subject'); </script> <script type="text/javascript">input[0].style.color = ''; </script> </span> </td> </tr> <tr> <tr> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="9"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="9">   </td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> </table> <span class="gen" style="width:100%; height:250px;"> <textarea id="text_editor_textarea" class="post" style="width:100%;height:500px;background-image:url()" onClick="storeCaret(this);" onKeyUp="storeCaret(this);" name="message" rows="15" cols="35" tabindex="3" onSelect="storeCaret(this);" wrap="virtual"> </textarea> </span>   <table class="forumline" width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="55%" align="center" class="catBottom"><div align="right"> <input type="hidden" name="lt" value="0" /> <input type="hidden" name="mode" value="newtopic" /> <input type="hidden" name="f" value="20" /> <input class="liteoption" type="submit" name="preview" value="Preview" tabindex="5" />   <input class="mainoption" type="submit" name="post" value="Submit" tabindex="6" accesskey="s" /> </div></td>   <td width="45%" height="32" colspan="2" align="center" class="catBottom"><div align="left"><font size="-2"><--- By Clicking 'Submit', You Are Agreeing With The Above Application Terms.</font></div></td> </tr> </table> <br /> </form> </table> <td valign="top" width="0">  </td> </tr></tbody> </table> </div> </div> </td> </tr> </table>  <span class="corners-bottom"> <span> </span> </span> </div> </div> </dd> </dl> </body> </html>

ehm i mean i have 5 categories and each has 3 forums. I want people, when they press new topic in one of the forums, to make a questionnaire just like you had, with questions about joining some gw guild, and they will just answer it in this post.
and the rules above this post would be cool too

PS. ,,create new html page" how? im sorry but i dont know it very well

@edit
ok all is working! the only one problem is that this is showing instead of link to forum. i would like it to be shown when u press ,,new topic" in this forum. i just want it to show as a new topic in ,,applications" forum. is it possible?
