You could try putting the guestbook in it's own div and then hide/show it as
necessary. I routinely do this for multi page forms. Whether it will play
nicely in NS4 depends on what you have on the rest of the page because if
you use inline style statements you can easily corrupt the layers collection
and it won't work in NS 4. I prefer that to a popup myself because it is
quicker and doesnt require the server trip.
