- not sure if you know - but I tried and NS 6 doesn't allow this below. I personally have had the same problems and wound up with an IE administration section that queries 5 categories and organizes into drop downs. User can fill in quantities and information- and just expand and collapse layers.
On top of that - as items are entered - they are updated dynamically into a js forms area that is altered in appearance with CSS so it looks part of the page - not an actual form. It is running sensitive queries - but I will see about duplicating it so I can have sample up. But I found without refreshing the page - to hide the info in dynamic layers was quite effective - you can see a graphical screen shot of it here - http://www.etcnj.com/priority.gif <http://www.etcnj.com/priority.gif> If it looks like something you would like to peak inside the code for - I will try to duplicate it soon jay miller Brook Davies wrote: Try this tutorial, we build some pretty amazing js multi pages forms using the princibles explained here: http://www.dansteinman.com/dynduo/en/forms.html <http://www.dansteinman.com/dynduo/en/forms.html> Here is a sample http://www.dansteinman.com/dynduo/examples/forms2.html <http://www.dansteinman.com/dynduo/examples/forms2.html> At 01:09 PM 16/08/02 -0400, you wrote: I use form wizards for data entry on a real estate app. I've recently gotten some positive feedback from our users. I use separate templates for each "step" and WDDX to pass a structure containing the data. Screenshot: http://www.hometour.com/wizard/ <http://www.hometour.com/wizard/> The only drawback is that each step in the wizard requires a trip to the server. My question is, does anyone have input, or know of resources for creating wizards (that wouldn't require separate trips to the server). I've tried using css (visibility) and JavaScript to create visible/hidden layers for each step, but I'm no JavaScript guru. Any advice is appreciated. -Brad ______________________________________________________________________ Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
