Doesn't that defeat the purpose of using a form wizard, since I can use jquery effectively without it all on the same page?
Or do you mean that the form wizard helps with shortening code with this because instead of hiding/showing fields one-by-one, it can somehow allow me to do this using the wizard steps as blocks with jquery?? I have looked into jquery and did some excercises on codecadamy, and I think I understand it alright..I just don't know how to incorporate it with web2py code. Can you give me some kind of example please?
