Hi Bruno,
Now I'm confused by adding radio buttons on different page.
I want name1(text), preferred1(radio) on 1st page, name2 and
preferred2(radio) on 2nd page. I also want to use a cool looking checkbox
instead of big X. (I can make big X checkboxes working, but not the
following code.) Could you help me? Really appriciate.
