I would greatly appreciate if someone could tell me if it's possible to create a multipart form using CCK module. I've been looking for the answer in this forum and FORMS API manuals, but still can't figure out how to do that. Have tried wform, webform, jstools already, but still need CCK (because of imagefield module etc.)... So.. any ideas on this?.

This has been on my cool-modules-to-try-out list so I can't completely vouch for it, but according the module description, this may be what you're looking for: http://drupal.org/project/pageroute

Well, pageroute is really cool mod. But still, after some testing I was unable to get a multipart CCK form in for creating a SINGLE node. Is it worth trying to split my current content type into a few smaller pieces or it's better to keep looking for any other ideas? Anyways, thanks for a very nice suggestion!

Ok, so i see a great module called "fieldgroup" which allows you to define collapsible groups. Only thing is, it does group the fields :-( as it should. I have severak group names but all the fields are outside these....

Any hints?

depending on how you want to do it, pageroute still may be your solution. if you combine nodefamily with pageroute, then you can have several CCK forms (making it your multipart form) and then set up a view or theme the parent content type .tpl file to display the children of the parent node. so that effectively, every time you link to the parent node(1st part of the multipart) then it will display all the children. (all the other parts of your multipart.) there is some php in the nodefamily docs that explains how it works. i have used this pretty effectively on my site.
