Dynamic Survey Forms
Hello,

Been working on rewriting my writing contest, and I keep coming to a "gee, I wish I could..." sort of thing, which I thought I'd share with you. Of course, I have no idea what implementing it would actually entail, or if anyone else would ever use it, but...

I think it would be useful if it were possible to make questions that show up on a survey dependent on the answer to a previous question. For example, if I were taking a lifestyle survey, it might ask for "age" and have a drop down. If I answered "18-25," the next question might ask if I'm currently enrolled in college; on the other hand, if I answered "60+," it might ask if I am working or retired instead.

In my case, this would make it possible to, for example, accept contest entries and GP donations for the contest with the same form, where only the appropriate fields appear depending on which a given individual wanted to do. Like I said, I have no idea what this would entail, it's just an idea.

Thanks for the time,
