I need to create an 'eligibility test' for a telecom operator.

Its a succession of X pages of questions where each page's content is function of the previous page answers.

The questions this process has to anwser are :

<i>Can you apply to our product ?</i>
<i>Is your phone line is in a covered area ?</i>
<i>At the end sending an email to the right service</i>

Answers of the questions can be radiobox, select menu or textfields...etc

The difficulty is that each submit lead to a different form in function of the previous answers.

What is the best way to handle this case ?

Thanx for every help. I just need a few clues to know the direction i should work.

Hi Martin,

General answer to your question is to develop your own extension, more information below:

---------------------------------
A quicker answer would be developing "custom action" extensions to re-use ezpublish content object infrastructure more, take a look at this thread below

http://ez.no/community/forum/developer/defining_methods_or_custom_actions_for_content_classes/re_defining_methods_or_custo

Both way above need php programming, I would like to hear of someone how to develop something like this just programming ezpublish templates

You could also adapt the ezsurvey extension to your needs:

Also consider the setup wizards. They too can be adapted.

Maybe you can generate it using AJAX...

Hmm... Yes, you have to develop custom extension.
Or you can simulate the behaviour with wForms - http://www.formassembly.com/
