It would certainly work. You could consider embedding a visible iframe in each box so that when the form was submitted, only that part refreshed. That would mitigate the page size issue Barney mentioned (in fact it could perform better than an old fashioned design), and save the layout from changing each time you submitted the form.

Very nice...I pasted your code below into Homesite and it worked like a charm...I guess I just need to dress it up and check out how you worked with your DIV's. That's a great way to get a lot of information on a page. I guess I could put forms into those DIV's and have sections for "Update Client Info" "Delete Client" or "Add Client" and instead of sending a user to various pages to complete forms and perform the functions, they could do it right in the DIV's and expand / collapse as needed. Any reason that wouldn't work? One reason I ask is that I'm working on an internal office application to replace some software an insurance company was unhappy with...the software was just too complicated for the simple tasks they wanted to perform. They asked me to write an app that performed the tasks they needed in an "understandable" manner. I've been looking for ways to consolidate adding, updating, and deleting into a single page. This looks like it has potential to do that.
