Hey ppl ,
Need some input on the following. I'm creating an asp.net site to fill in an
online form. The form has many sub sections and in total is about 8 pages
long (hard copy). Whats the best way to put this online ? each actual form
page to be one web page itself ? do i update the data directly to the
database on each page to ensure the data is not lost ? Anybody done this
before ?
Thanks in advance..

Hi Mike,
The safest way is as you suggest: divide up the "pages" and push the data to
the database on each button click.
Although you can store the data in a Session, it is riskier because it
doesn't scale as well and if the user closes the browser prematurely, the
data is gone.
