passing retrieving data and display form summary before submit

[mrjoka]

dear experts,
i'm very newbie in javascript and i've been assined to work in a project that has a lot of javascript so i realy need your help.
my question is: i'm building a form and at the end of this form after all fields are filled in i need to submit a summary of all the information filled in by the client and after that send it.
so the user can view the information he filled in before he can send the form.
i think i need two buttons the send button is hidden and the summary one is visible and when he clicks the summary button he can see all the information he already filled in and after that he can send it.
any suggestions or examples how i can implement this. please make it easy on me cus as i told you i'm very new to this, so step by step please.
thanks

hi,
sorry for being late to answer back because i had a vacation.
the scenario is that i have a form that has to be filled in by the user and after sending the form i want the user to be able to see the summary of what he filled in, i have a form that has all kind of controlls, check boxes, drop down list, birth day, all kind of controlls.
i started by creating a page called summary and i tried to store all the information in that page. but i could not continue.
is there an easy way to do that?
some examples will be more helpful.
thanks

Ok so you want to have a user fill out a form then preview it before sending? Do you have any of the code completed?

[mrjoka]

Assuming the form is named theForm, an input textbox, theInput,:

var inputval = "Input box: " + document.theForm.theInput.value;

Then how do you wish to display. if using an alert box:

summary += inputval; //this would go after each control
// += adds to the current value of summary.
alert(summary);

Once the summary has been displayed, you can display the submit button.

I think you'll need to give more info. - your code so far.

hi,
you can use a pop up window on button submit to get all the values from the main page with the caption verification and have the submit button from the pop up window.

i think this should solve your problem.
