+# Forms with multiple steps
+
+Multi-steps forms are forms where the user has to go through multiple pages
+to fill in all the information.
+They are a good practice to improve the user experience
+on complex forms by removing the cognitive load of filling in a long form at once.
+Additionally, they allow you to validate the input at each step,
+and create dynamic forms, where the next step depends on the user's input.
+
+There are multiple ways to create forms with multiple steps in SQLPage,
+which vary in the way the state of the partially filled form
+is persisted between steps.
+
+This example illustrates the main ones.
+All the examples will implement the same simple form:
+a form that asks for a person's name, email, and age.
+
+## [Storing the state in hidden fields](./hidden/)
+
+![schema](./hidden/illustration.png)
+
+You can store the state of the partially filled form in hidden fields,
+using `'hidden' as type` in the [form component](https://sql-page.com/component.sql?component=form#component).
+
+ - **advantages**
+   - simple to implement
+   - the form state is not sent to the server when the user navigates to other pages
+ - **disadvantages**
+   - the entire state is re-sent to the server on each step
+   - you need to reference all the previous answers in each step
+   - no *backwards navigation*: the user has to fill in the steps in order. If they go back to a previous step, you cannot prefill the form with the previous answers, or save the data they have already entered.
+
+## [Storing the state in the database](./database/)
+
+You can store the state of the partially filled form in the database,
+either in the final table where you want to store the data,
+or in a dedicated table that will be used to store only partial data,
+allowing you to have more relaxed column constraints in the partially filled data.
+
+ - **advantages**
+   - the website administrator can access user inputs before they submit the final form
+   - the user can start filling the form on one device, and continue on another one.
+   - the user can have multiple partially filled forms in flight at the same time.
+ - **disadvantages**
+   - the website administrator needs to manage a dedicated table for the form state
+   - old partially filled forms may pile up in the database
+
+## [Storing the state in cookies](./cookies/)
+
+You can store each answer of the user in a cookie,
+using the 
+[`cookie` component](https://sql-page.com/component.sql?component=cookie#component).
+and retrieve it on the next step using the
+[`sqlpage.cookie` function](https://sql-page.com/functions.sql?function=cookie#function).
+
+ - **advantages**
+   - simple to implement
+   - if the user leaves the form before submitting it, and returns to it later,
+     the state will be persisted.
+   - works even if some of the steps do not use the form component.
+ - **disadvantages**
+   - the entire state is re-sent to the server on each step
+   - the user needs to have cookies enabled to fill in the form
+   - if the user leaves the form before submitting it, the form state will keep being sent to all the pages he visits until he submits the form.
