Use the Content Collection Organizer to create a collection of pages and assign names to the tabs or headers for each page. In the simplest example, those pages are displayed, the user can access tabs in any order desired, and information is saved independently on each page. The following screenshot shows an example with tabs across the top, configured to display different content pages.
Using the Content Collection Organizer as a Wizard
You can configure the Content Collection Organizer to function as a wizard, which will guide the user through multiple steps. When enabled, Next and Previous buttons display, allowing users to navigate between the steps, as shown below. The user can navigate to any previous tab, but forward only to the next tab in the workflow sequence. The user can also navigate with the browser's Forward and Back buttons, but the data does not commit until the user clicks Next.
Each page in the workflow is validated when the user clicks the Next button. Each iPart's page.Validate method is processed in the order the iParts appear on the page. The order of calls is:
■ Validation
■ If Validation passes, then PreCommit
■ If PreCommit passes, then Commit
If any of the calls fail (the data on a page is incomplete or incorrect), then an error message displays and the user cannot move to the next step until it is corrected.
