Retaining user input details

[JonnyWales]

I currently have one page where a customer inputs his/her required items and personal details and the appropriate price is calculated before passing the information to my financial company for processing.

What I would like to do is to split the process into 2-3 seperate pages but I don't know how to retain the customer details. For example, the first page would require the customer to input the products required before hitting a <NEXT> button. Then the customer would be required to input their personal details but I still want to see on this page the details input on the previous page.

Any suggestions?
TIA

You could do it with php, and use sessions, or a cookie, you could also use javascript and a cookie aswell. Asp can do both aswell.

I second the usage of PHP. It would be very easy to do this with a PHP/HTML combo.

If you are running with Coldfusion, there are a number of great methods. There is a simple tag that will carry many form inputs across multiple pages and keep them as hidden fields (1 line of code). I am sure that PHP and ASP would have similar tags for this function.

What platform is available to you?
