How to post from a form to another form.

I've been thru sites that do this, post info from one form into the next page
where more fields get filled out, fields edited, and the whole thing gets
sent on from there.

FP Confirmation fields don't work inside form tags. Thats' what I figured
out from a previous question.

But . . . text outside a form doesn't submitted.

Can FP do this or is it a tedious scripting thing?
 
It's a tedious scripting thing - either lots of JavaScript which may
fail on some systems where JavaScript is disabled. JavaScript is also
limited to using GET, which in turn limits the amount of data you can
transfer between pages (it all has to fit into a URL).
The alternative is client side scripting. The method/language depends
on what your server supports (asp, php, asp.net, perl/cgi etc.)

Should be "server side scripting".
