Hi all.

I've been struggling with something for a while now, and would love any opinions/ideas/help.

I've got an object with a bunch of children objects. When viewing the child object from the list of children on a form of the parent I can use the 'Next form' and 'Previous form' buttons to navigate between children. While I've come across a quite specific bug, this works well overall.

A bit more about my specific case:

I have a survey. This survey has a list of questions. I view the survey object for a specific user. On this survey object form I show the children, using a custom display. I show only 1 child per page, and hide the paging bar. In my custom display I show only some text, saying 'Begin survey now'. When the user clicks on the survey question (the child object, which they just see as a box saying 'Begin survey now') they see a form of the question object, and can navigate to the next question using a 'Next form' button. This all works well.

I now need for this user to be able to resume answering questions if they are interrupted. They should still be able to navigate backwards to the previous already answered questions. Using my current method, they 'see' the first question (they see it as a box that says 'Begin survey now') and when they click on this question they edit it using the answer form, but it is always the first question.

I'm not sure if this makes sense, please ask if I've been a bit unclear. Also please see images attached of the process.

Many thanks for taking the time to read this, and I look forward to any replies!
