Dear sir,
You can either end up using scripting such as JavaScript to
automatically make the extra sections appear by clicking the link, and
changing the link to make it submit, or you can make yourself
completely rewrite the page dynamically with a server-side language.
The first method is the easiest, although it might not work with
everyone's browser.
I have the honor to remain your most humble and Ob't Sv't in our war
against the King.
