    Hi again,

    There are two widgets which come to mind:

    Form Tabs

    Progress Bar

    This example has the former but in some instances the latter may be more suitable. (You can't currently use both in the same form though.) This guide shows how to use widgets as a whole but if you need further information on how to make best use of the aforementioned ones, we'd be happy to provide it. Incidentally, if you just wanted to know where to find the Free Text (HTML) tool mentioned in the other thread, it has been renamed simply Text and is now located in the Form Tools menu:

    Actually, additional tests I recently ran showed that you can use the Form Tabs and Progress Bar widgets in the same jotform (as in this clone of the first example) but it seems that the former needs to be added to the form before the latter.
