How do I have multiple pages within the same form?

I have multiple pages within a single form. How do I have a user submit the first page, and have it automatically bring up the second page within the same form? I know I can link one form to another, but I would like to have it continue from page to page within a single form.

In the image above, I would like for the user to fill out "Starting Form" and when they submit that, have it bring up "Form 2".

Thanks

Normally when you create your process and assign a task to a user, you will have to set which form will be associate to that user task.

so your starting point will be the starting form and the next user task will need to be set to use the form 2

A better option may be to do something like http://www.jquery-steps.com/. You would still have everything in the same form, but give that Wizard/Page look to separate sections of the form.

I have a couple of forms i redirect to. If you get the url of your form 2, and instead of a thank you message, you redirect to the form 2. In mine it auto pops up and it appears as if it is the next step.

How do I find the URL for the second page within the form? I actually thought of this solution, but am not sure how to find the url.

David,

I ran into this same issue and from my experience, the 2nd page/form is not accessible via a separate url. You will have to create page 2 as a completely separate form and that will give it a unique url. In my experience, this gets pretty messy when it comes to saving the forms, but certainly is doable. So you don't have to re-create the entire form, you can copy the one you have, then delete page 1 and then you can setup a separate url for form 1 and form 2. Hope this helps.

This is definitely something I'd like to see in the future of forms, however I do like Chris' jquery-step idea!

Nate is right. I have mine as a separate process, not form 2.
