I didn't try what rules you can define but creation of a form is about
1) Create a new page (select "User defined form" from dropdown near "Go")
2) Add fields (under "Form" tab; "Main" tab only contains "$UserDefinedForm")
3) Add rules etc

For the Anwender/Mitmachen form in de.lo I just experimented a bit until it
worked as desired.

Dunno how to realize passing results to a php script, all the builtin form can
do seems limited to storing values on the server and emailing them to a given
address. So maybe you'll have to code a custom form anyways.
