Right, but if each input section (or more likely, a set of select
options) returns a value, then you can "build" a file name from the
values selected. So an "A" + "B" + "C" selection can become an
"ABC.HTM" string, and then a window.open() can open a file with that
name in a new window--or in the same window, as needed. Of course
there needs to be a file named ABC.HTM available. That should work,
assuming the client already has a set of files with various names, and
wants to open one of them based on the viewer's selections. It's not
fancy, but it works.
