If you insist on doing this serverside, then personally I'd probably use hidden form fields. If you're open to doing it client side, then I'd probably out the information into five <div> sections, only one of which would be visible at any one time. using dhtml. What you want is the CSS visibility attribute. Only one <div> would be visible at any one time. On 5/28/05, ...helmut <forum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > I have a form that contains 100 questions.
