Hello,

Does someone know how to auto populate online forms from other online forms?
Here is an example":
Traffic--->Squezee Page--->Name & E-mail--->Another page with more fields to fill, but they contain name and e-mail as well---> Thank you page

So, on the bigger form, the name and e-mail should be added automatically.

It makes sense what i am asking?

Does someone know how to handle it?

Thanks.

    Assuming you are hosting all of these pages yourself, you could look at passing variables with php.. Here is an example (PHP Pass variable to next page - Stack Overflow)

    A simple understanding of MySql and php will do the trick. Although, I'm sure you could hire someone from Fiverr to do it for you in a matter of a few minutes, assuming the database is already configured.

    You would need to retain that information across web pages. If it is all in a site you can control then you could probably do it with variables/local variables/javascript/something.

    If the pages are on different servers or use different sessions then it is much trickier.

    But rather than ask how to do something, why not tell us the problem you are trying to solve?

    I can see what you are asking but it makes no sense because I don't see the problem you are trying to solve.

    Most people don't have a problem filling out two forms or using the browser's built in "autocomplete".

    Why waste time and effort on something that gives you no benefit - i.e. isn't solving a problem you have?
