John I have done this very thing with a pop up small window that breaks the
form into many pieces and gives them a choice at each one to close window or
pick the next part. This was for a medical office application where they
might not want to get all the patient info on a new patient with the first
phone call.
In that case I do an insert with each form part of the large form is broken
up in the pop up window and then use JavaScript to close the window with the
last submit button. Just remember to pass the args from each part as hidden
inputs with each time.
I also suggest you check for missing or malformed info on each part so they
can use a back link to fix it.
