Insert a faux "page" within survey? was created by cheeseburger
Hello everyone. I am exploring a proof of concept for the following:
  • Insert a screen to appear to the user to display after the last question in a survey yet before the form is submitted
  • The screen will display a summary of the content that the user keyed into the form and allows them to preview their work before commiting to the submit button
In a smaller test, I was easily able to achieve this by utilizing a long text type of question and simply added code to the question field. 

Are there any known methods to do this better? If needed, I will attempt to include as much markup as I can within a "huge free text" field to create a nice two column page layout displaying all of the survey's contents but there may be a large number of questions and wondered if there were other methods to insert a faux page like this. I'll proceed in the meantime and see when I hit a wall (such as character count limitations, or code parsing challenges). 

Thanks!

Yes, use a "text display" question type, that is what it is there for. You can use HTML to format your results and Expressions to draw the responses from the previous answers of this respondent.

Thank you Holch. I knew it had to be in there since most other tools have similar. Good stuff. Thanks a ton!

That's not a good reason... ;-)

But you are lucky, this time your assumption was right.
