How can PHP OOP principles be applied to simplify form processing and redirection in a multi-page survey?

To simplify form processing and redirection in a multi-page survey using PHP OOP principles, you can create classes for each form page and use methods to handle form submission, validation, and redirection to the next page. 

// Define a class for each form page
class SurveyPage1 {
    public function processForm() {
        // Handle form submission and validation
        // Redirect to the next form page
        header("Location: survey_page2.php");
        exit;
    }
}

class SurveyPage2 {
    public function processForm() {
        // Handle form submission and validation
        // Redirect to the next form page or to the survey completion page
        header("Location: survey_page3.php");
        exit;
    }
}

// Instantiate the appropriate class based on the current form page
if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] === 'POST') {
    if ($_POST['page'] == 1) {
        $surveyPage = new SurveyPage1();
    } elseif ($_POST['page'] == 2) {
        $surveyPage = new SurveyPage2();
    }
    
    $surveyPage->processForm();
}
