I'm looking for a good tutorial (prefer screencast) on how to implement multipage forms in Drupal 6. All the ones I find either don't explain things very well or are for 5.x or earlier. Anybody have some suggestions?

for creating custom content, or what?

I am trying to create a custom help desk ticket system. I have a ticket content type and have created a view to display all "open" tickets. I am currently using the Views Embed Form module to insert a "Close Ticket" button for each open ticket. This closes the ticket as intended. However, I would like to extend the functionality so that clicking the "Close Ticket" button generates a popup (using Popups API module) that contains a "Resolution" field where the solution to the problem could be recorded. Once the resolution is entered and submitted the user would be returned to the view containing the tickets.

I believe that a multipart form could possibly provide this functionality.

I was looking for the same thing, and upon using google, I found page in a handbook for drupal-5 specifically - from there it wasn't too hard to find this though.

This is a code based approach for a module developer, the comment above is good for a CCK based approach though.
