Best way using ADDT? : No page refresh, but form fields change on selection.

Question

The top half of the form is a simple user registration. The bottom half is dependent on the user selecting an item from a dropdown menu which then changes the form accordingly.
What is the best way to do this?

How about an alternate solution, where each form is on an a spry widget accordion plane?
When tyring to do that with ADDT or Dreamweaver forms, you would have to define multiple insert or update transactions as well -- that´s per se not possible, also because an insert/update transaction always comes with an "redirect after insert/update" trigger, means the user will be leaving that page.
But is there a way to still have the simple registration form at the top of the page?
see my "redirect after insert" comment above.
Would each widget form have its own submit button?
You might want to consider creating separate (non ADDT) forms for each SPRY accordion which submit their stuff to the database behind the scenes and without leaving the page. To my knowledge the SPRY documentation shows how this can be done -- but as this isn´t related to ADDT, I´m not going to comment on that :-)
Then on submit it inserts the simple registration form along with its own form?
the main form
(regardless if it´s driven by ADDT´s or Dreamweaver´s insert/update behaviours) will be redirecting to another page
