Hello, I'd like to create a 2-step form input (like a wizard) with a single simple entry point. I have - one category/form/template for step 1 - several categories/froms/templates for step 2 In step 1, some fields with master data as well as a category are defined. In step 2, I'd like to add some more specific data that depends on the category choosen in step 1. Example: 0. Click 'Add Product'. 1. Enter the master data for 'a product'. Select that the product is a 'personal computer'. 2. Enter details for 'personal computer' in step 2. Questions: A) Is there a way to create a new/modified Semantic Froms "standard input" that will send the form and open the page in "edit with form" mode again? B) Am I right that currently the form tag is 'static' (<form name="createbox" id="sfForm" action="" method="post" class="createbox">)? -> SF_FormEdit.php C) Are there other ways to achive this? - 'Show on select' (http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Semantic_Forms#Form_markup_language) might be an option but the forms in step 2 are very complex. - The 'two-step-process' (http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Semantic_Forms#The_two-step_process) might be an option, but how to show only certain forms: '[...] letting the user choose among all existing forms.' Help or any other ideas are very welcome. /planetenxin ___________________________________________________________ Empfehlen Sie WEB.DE DSL Ihren Freunden und Bekannten und wir belohnen Sie mit bis zu 50,- Euro! https://freundschaftswerbung.web.de |

Hi, My suggestion would be to have multiple forms, one for each product type, and just have people select from one of those forms in the beginning. If you're worried about having the same set of fields at the beginning of each of those forms (and templates), you can actually move that duplicated stuff into their own templates, to reduce redundancy - see here: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Semantic_Forms#Reusing_form_elements -Yaron On Sat, Jan 8, 2011 at 11:03 AM, Alexander Gesinn <pla...@we...>wrote: > Hello, > > I'd like to create a 2-step form input (like a wizard) with a single simple > entry point. > > I have > - one category/form/template for step 1 > - several categories/froms/templates for step 2 > > In step 1, some fields with master data as well as a category are defined. > In step 2, I'd like to add some more specific data that depends on the > category choosen in step 1. > > Example: > 0.
