Jheez, I hope that is titled correctly.
Here's the question - I have a situation where a user needs to order one item or another or both at the same time. It's for ordering funeral flags -and/or- a headstone for our fallen military veterans at our cemetery. We're the U.S.Veterans of Foreign Wars in the Philippines.
Usually just a flag is ordered, but sometimes at the same time, a headstone might be ordered. I would like to make an query field "Order a flag", which has two radio buttons for the two different flag sizes, one for a casket and one for an urn. Once the flag is ordered through SUBMIT button, I would then like a text element "Order a headstone as well?" followed by it's YES or NO radio buttons and five further fields to appear, but not until the SUBMIT button is depressed. In my opinion it reduces page clutter as most of our folks entering the data are old guys, like myself.
Explaining that is confusing (I hope not), but not as confusing as learning the great features and interactions of the CORVID database. ;).
Summary: Flag only input elements, Page appears blank after the SUBMIT button.
Then press SUBMIT and the page populates with the headstone ordering elements and fields.
Thanks, and cheers from the U.S. Veterans of Foreign Wars here in the Philippines.
Great advice, thanks. Anyone with a tag of 'givemeawhiskey' is OK by me. That's been saying for almost 60 years! I'll get on your advice and learn coding at the same time.

So basically do a submit button through the editor and simply have a new page or lightbox show up that contains the headstone form etc.
You can do that by adding on after save to your page code and then have location.to set to take the user to the headstone page or lightbox after the user inputs are saved into your dataset.
Or you can do it through the button elements own settings and link it to the headstone page or lightbox.
Or do the whole process through your code with your own submit button and set it to save in the code and then go to your headstone page or lightbox.
