If you have multiple versions of a form, the chief task becomes pointing people to the right form. Often, a simple set of links will do: “click here for the simple form, click here for the more complicated one.” Alternatively, a single page can show one of several forms that the visitor can choose between using radio buttons. This approach is especially nice for complicated pages and for users working over slow connections, since there’s no delay as a new page loads. Take a look at this example of a frame-like approach to providing multiple forms. Business - List of business/finance/loan/mortgage resources Computers - List of computer hardware/software/peripheral resources Internet - List of webhosting/webdesign/internet marketing resources Software - List of software resources Web Design - List of web design/development resources Web Hosting - List of web hosting resources Web Promotion - List of search engine optimization/internet marketing resources Web Resources - List of other web resources Recreation - List of travel/hotel/cruise resources Casino - List of online gambling/poker/blackjack/roulette resources Health - List of online pharmacy/hospital/health resources Shopping - List of online shopping/gift resources Miscellaneous - List of all other resources not stated above A long form can be shortened in a number of ways. The Internal Revenue Service, for example, provides simple and complex versions of many of its forms; the 1040-A income tax form has a simpler version, the 1040-EZ, for people whose tax lives are less complicated.
