Multi Stage HTML5 Form using jQuery and css3
Step 1:
Create index.html page, and add the following html code in the index.html file to create outer container of form.
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Test Site</title> <link rel='stylesheet' href='style.css'/> </head> <body> <div id="border"> </div> </body> </html>
Now create style.css file to add styling to the outer container, we just created now. Add the following css to the style.css file.
#border{
height : 450px;
width : 800px;
border: 30px solid #13202c;
border-radius: 25px;
background-color: #1abc9c;
margin: auto;
margin-bottom: 50px;
}
Step 2:
Now create form using form tag inside the outer container (<div id=’border’>).
<form id="loginForm"> </form>
Step 3:
Now add following four <div> tag inside the form tag to create multi stage form.
<div id="firstStep"> </div> <div id="secondStep"> </div> <div id="thirdStep"> </div> <div id="fourthStep"> </div>

Step 4:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Demo HTML5 Border</title>
<meta charset='utf-8'>
<link rel='stylesheet' href='css/style.css'/>
</head>
<h1>Multi Stage HTML5 Form - Demo</h1>
<body>
<div id="border">
<form id="loginForm">
<div class="align">
<div id="firstStep">
<p>First Step</p>
<input id="first_name" name="first_name" class="login-field" type="text" placeholder="Enter your first name" value="">
<br/>
<input id="last_name" name="last_name" class="login-field" type="text" placeholder="Enter your last name" value="">
<br/>
<input id="email" name="email" class="login-field" type="email" placeholder="Enter your Email" value="">
<br/>
<button type="button" id="firstBtn" class="next1">Next</button>
</div>
<div id="secondStep">
<p>Second Step</p>
<input id="phone" name="phone" class="login-field" type="text" placeholder="Enter your phone number" value="">
<br/>
<input id="street_name" name="street_name" class="login-field" type="text" placeholder="Enter your street name" value="">
<br/>
<input id="city_name" name="city_name" class="login-field" type="text" placeholder="Enter your city name" value="">
<br/>
<button type="button" id="secondBtnBack">Previous</button>
<button type="button" id="secondBtn" class="next">Next</button>
</div>
<div id="thirdStep">
<p>Third Step</p>
<input id="state_name" name="state_name" class="login-field" type="text" placeholder="Enter your state name" value="">
<br/>
<input id="country_name" name="country_name" class="login-field" type="text" placeholder="Enter your country name" value="">
<br/>
<input id="zip_code" name="zip_code" class="login-field" type="text" placeholder="Enter your zip code" value="">
<br/>
<button type="button" id="thirdBtnBack">Previous</button>
<button type="button" id="thirdBtn" class="next">Next</button>
</div>
<div id="fourthStep">
<p>Fourth Step</p>
<input id="hobbies" name="hobbies" class="login-field" type="text" placeholder="Enter your hobbies" value="">
<br/>
<input id="book" name="book" class="login-field" type="text" placeholder="Enter your fav book" value="">
<br/>
<input id="place" name="place" class="login-field" type="text" placeholder="Enter your fav place" value="">
<br/>
<button type="button" id="fourthBtnBack">Previous</button>
<input type="submit" id='sub_btn' value='Send Mail!' class="next"/>
</div>
</div>
</form>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Now the form shows all the four steps input elements.
Step 5:
Now add the following css to style.css file to temporarily disable last three steps(two, three and four steps).
#secondStep, #thirdStep, #fourthStep{
display:none;
}
Step 6:
Now add the following four paragraph tag for each step.
<div class="linker">
<p id="first">First Step</p>
<p id="second">Second Step</p>
<p id="third">Third Step</p>
<p id="fourth">Fourth Step</p>
</div>
Add the following css to style.css to align correctly.
.linker{
padding-top:130px;
margin-left:50px;
}
.align{
margin-top: -190px;
padding-left: 300px;
}
.next1{
margin-left:175px; width: 80px
}
.next{
margin-left:95px; width: 80px
}
You had finished designing part, next we move for jQuery to add Some interaction.
Step 7:
First add jQuery library just before </body> tag.
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
Step 8:
Finally add the following jQuery script below the jQuery library we just added.
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#firstBtn").click(function(){
$("#firstStep").hide();
$("#secondStep").show();
});
$("#secondBtn").click(function(){
$("#thirdStep").show();
$("#secondStep").hide();
});
$("#thirdBtn").click(function(){
$("#fourthStep").show();
$("#thirdStep").hide();
});
$("#fourthBtnBack").click(function(){
$("#fourthStep").hide();
$("#thirdStep").show();
});
$("#thirdBtnBack").click(function(){
$("#thirdStep").hide();
$("#secondStep").show();
});
$("#secondBtnBack").click(function(){
$("#secondStep").hide();
$("#firstStep").show();
});
$("#first").click(function(){
$("#firstStep").show();
$("#secondStep,#thirdStep,#fourthStep").hide();
});
$("#second").click(function(){
$("#thirdStep,#firstStep,#fourthStep").hide();
$("#secondStep").show();
});
$("#third").click(function(){
$("#fourthStep,#firstStep,#secondStep").hide();
$("#thirdStep").show();
});
$("#fourth").click(function(){
$("#fourthStep").show();
$("#thirdStep,#firstStep,#secondStep").hide();
});
});
</script>
Finally I added some jQuery ajax functions to send mail without refreshing the page.
$("#sub_btn").click(function(e){
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "show.php",
data: $('#loginForm').serialize(),
success: function(msg) {
alert(msg);
$("#loginForm").addClass("hide");
$("#message").show();
}
});
$('#close').click(function(){
$('#message').hide();
$("#loginForm").removeClass("hide");
$('input[type=text],input[type=email]').val('');
location.reload();
});
return false;
});
