New Form Question - Multiple page forms

Hello,

Is is possible to create a form in Dreamveaver that carries over onto more than one page (has a next button) before submitting, by using htm pages and a cgi script?

Or would something like this require ASP?

Thanks in advance for all of your help. This week I've gone from never having done the action on a form to creating quite a long one and linking it up to a cgi script!!!! Hurray for learning something new!

You could probably do it in CGI -or- ASP. Choose one and stick to it - it'll make your life easier.
Make up all your pages in HTML first how you want them to look, then make each one submit to the next one, and the last one submit to a processing script. In all but the processing script and the first page, simply store the results in Session variables. Then on the final processing page, use all the Session variables.

e.g. Page 1 - Enter your Name & E-Mail. Submits to:
Page 2. Stores answers from Page 1 into session vars (i.e. Session("Name") = Request.Form("FirstName") ). On Page 2, enter your DOB. submits to:
Pge 3. Store DOB in Session var. (Session("DOB") = Request.Form("DOB") ).
You get the idea. On the processing page...
Response.Write("Your Name: ") & Session("Name")
Response.Write("DOB: ") & Session("DOB")
...etc...
