And if they do, it's their problem I think. My client wants the user to fill out the application form. If I let the user screw up, that's my problem. > Every 'next' button on the form pages should be a submit button and send > the data from the current page to the server, where it's stored in a > session.

My concern is not when a user does what I want and expect, but when they don't. >> As far as I can tell, I need to integrate ECMA script, XMLHttpRequest, >> and session variables, triggered by the onLoad and onUnload events. > > Ugly, unreliable and IMHO completely unnecessary. > > Micha May need to use different events, and realize nothing is 100%, but this is a safety net. As far as JS being disabled (mentioned regularly throughout this thread), the user has two choices. 1) Print amd mail the pdf, or 2) enable JS to do things "on line."
