Stop the Workarounds: We Need Native Multi-Step Forms

// Step 1 form On Success:
step2_url = "#Form:Step_2_Employment?Employee_Lookup=" + input.ID;
openUrl(step2_url, "same window");

// Step 2 form On Load:
if(input.Employee_Lookup != null)
{
    emp = Employee[ID == input.Employee_Lookup];
    input.Name = emp.Name;
    input.Email = emp.Email;
    // ... populate all fields from Step 1
}

// Step 1 Stateless Form - "Next" button:
step2_url = "#Form:Step_2_Stateless?" 
    + "Name=" + encodeUrl(input.Name) 
    + "&Email=" + encodeUrl(input.Email)
    + "&Phone=" + encodeUrl(input.Phone)
    + "&Address=" + encodeUrl(input.Address)
    + "&City=" + encodeUrl(input.City)
    + "&State=" + encodeUrl(input.State)
    + "&Zip=" + encodeUrl(input.Zip);
    // ... repeat for EVERY field
openUrl(step2_url, "same window");

// Step 2 Stateless Form - "Next" button:
step3_url = "#Form:Step_3_Stateless?"
    // Pass ALL fields from Step 1 again...
    + "Name=" + encodeUrl(input.Name)
    + "&Email=" + encodeUrl(input.Email)
    // ... plus all Step 2 fields
    + "&Department=" + encodeUrl(input.Department)
    + "&Manager=" + encodeUrl(input.Manager);
openUrl(step3_url, "same window");

// Final Form - actually saves the record

// Radio field "Current_Step" with options: Step 1, Step 2, Step 3...

// On User Input of Current_Step:
if(input.Current_Step == "Step 1")
{
    show Section_Personal_Info;
    hide Section_Employment;
    hide Section_Banking;
}
else if(input.Current_Step == "Step 2")
{
    hide Section_Personal_Info;
    show Section_Employment;
    hide Section_Banking;
}
// ... repeat for each step

• Tip 12: How can you customize the display name while sending emails from Zoho Creator.

  Hi folks, Usually when you send emails to your users, the display name defaults as your From email address. Most often, you would like to set a custom display name to represent your organization or the context of the email. You can mask or customize the display name (From Address) using Deluge script as long as the From email address has been verified. This would be very useful to you if you want to send bulk emails to a large audience.    Let's say you have a Student Registration form for your dance
