Collect data from user then use it later in form

  1. I need to ask a user for personal information (name, address, etc) then echo that data back to them later.

    For example:

    What is your name?
    What is your address?

    Hi [name], I see that you live at [address]!

    SUBMIT

    Any clue how to make that happen?

  2. Would it be on the same page of one form, or on a subsequent page of a multi-page form?

  3. Either one would be fine.

  5. @berger, your situation sounds more like a pre-submission confirmation, rather than just a reuse of a field entry in a later page. Please see here for a pre-submission confirmation solution. http://gravitywiz.com/2012/08/04/better-pre-submission-confirmation/

    @uogecko, to use user entered data later in the same form, you need a JavaScript or jQuery solution. Here is one way to do it: http://stackoverflow.com/q/2706756

  7. Please put your form online with the pre-submission functionality and we'll help you with the style. It is possible to style the overview with CSS by targeting the elements you want to change.

  9. @berger, we've gotten off track of the original topic. Please create a new topic and post your link and your question there and we can help you out.

    (I didn't see any little frames around any selection dots on the first page. Please post a screenshot identifying what you mean when you create your new topic.)
