I have a very large form that I want to split into three or four different pages. I have been told to use hidden properties to do this. Does anyone have an example of how this works. i.e. what to hide on each page so that when the sender hits continue it goes to the next and final submit button?


Thanks in advance.

I believe you should make hyperlinks to each form, and have a confirmation page on the final hyperlink,
hope this helps, hong

Thank you for your reply but I don't belive it is that simple.

There has to be a way to store the information on the first page when continuing to the next. And when the final page is reached and the submit button clicked all of the information is mailed.

If I did what you suggest the page will be submitted everytime the person clicks on the continue button.

What you would want to do is set up your form with PHP.

After each page, your PHP code would set the variables entered as hidden variables of the form. Then, when the user pushes continue to go to the next step of the form, the variables are passed, but hiddenly.

I could probly do something like this for you, or at least help you through it if you need the assistance.
