On the server side you need to know which page is being displayed, so a

hidden field can keep track of that. It would be easiest to have all of them

submit to the same page. This takes the current hidden field value and

redirects to the next page (or better just displays the next content back),

saving the "answers" I assume each will have using form values.



On the client you need a settimeout() function set for 6000 milliseconds

which begins using onload which then submits the page. For the form, you

must not use an action statement to disable the enter key if that's

important.
