    Creating a form that has related information

    I want to create a form which has several pieces of related information in questions

    e.g. Your job history? Position:company:from-to:Achievements.

    I've been told that Contour can't handle this kind of functionality.

    Ideally I'd like the user to be able to sign up to the form and return to it to complete.

    does anyone have any experience of building this kind of form in Umbraco, using contour or not.

    Ideas/help/pointers gratefully recieved!

    Hi Shivvy and welcome to our :)

    Hmm, I guess this should be possible to achieve somehow even though it might be a bit hackish. I'm sure Tim has some nice way of doing this since you can achieve a lot of things with Contour using the API etc.

    However from my limited knowledage about the API I'm thinking that if you save the information on a member in Umbraco on signup it should be possible to fetch the information from umbraco and have them somewhere in the html source, either as data-attributes, content or hidden input fields and then you could perhaps populate some Contour fields with these values using some JavaScript magic.

    Even though it's a bit hackish I think this approach could actually work. But as mentiond Tim might have an even better suggestion than the above.

    /Jan

    Not sure I understand what you are looking for, any examples you can show?
