Perhaps I'm missing something, but why not just pass the form elements to a
page that merely displays the stuff submitted with whatever formating you
want. Then the user could review it. If s/he wants any changes, they click
a Make Changes button which passes them back to the original page with the
text field contents, etc. If no changes are needed, they click a Done, no
changes needed button which submits it to the template with the INSERT
statement.
