I would like something like the example on the page below where you have tabs and fill in and choose options to create a wedding script sermon.

Thank you for contacting us. We have a widget to create tabs called "Form Tabs": https://www.jotform.com/widgets/form-tabs
So, you can use the Text field to put the script, and put the names in the scripts:
So, it will appear when the person types in their info:
Here is the basic structure I have built for you: https://form.jotform.com/93185853700965
You may clone it: https://www.jotform.com/help/42-How-to-Clone-an-Existing-Form-from-a-URL
Please note that you will need to add multiple Text fields to have all the possible script that may result by the users selections:
And you will need to create conditions to show them based on the selections: https://www.jotform.com/help/316-How-to-Show-or-Hide-Fields-Base-on-User-s-Answer
Hope this helps, let us know if you have more questions.

Thank you so very much for answering. I have been able to build tabs, my problem is make the script hide or show whichever the radio or check marks the consumer chooses. It’s coding it just as the wedding script generator has it built. That is where I cannot bring it together.
I thank you a million though, I appreciate how quickly you responded and with the precise information to get started.
Sincerely,

You are welcome. In regards to conditions, here are my suggestions:
1) Create the conditions for each of the "Wedding Script" at a time. Once you make sure it only shows when specific options are selected, then you can create conditions for the next "Wedding Script".
2) It is also a good tip to write the logic first before proceeding to create the condition.
Example:
If Denomination is equal to Christian
And If Type of Ceremony is equal to Traditional
Then
Show "Christian wedding script"
Example:
3) Another tip is to avoid creating a HIDE condition type to hide that same field if the opposite happens, because that field will remain hidden until its SHOW condition is met.
If you are giving it a try, and you would like us to inspect the conditions you have created, please share the URL of the form where it is embedded, so we can take a look and advise. We will be glad to assist you.

Marcia DexterReplied on November 21, 2019 at 11:50 AMHello,
I did as you explained below. If you could test it and let me know where I am going wrong I would appreciate it. I thought I did it right but whether I select traditional, simple or vow renewal it displays the same information on my end. As there is the processional that I took out but still appears on my end.

You conditions are conflicting. You have field in the a "Show" condition, but also those fields are listed in the "HIDE" conditions. That is not a good practice, as it will cause conflicts.
Please try creating only "if...then...show" conditions, and if a field will be shown based on different selection, then create "If equal to, and If equal to....then....show" conditions.

Marcia DexterReplied on November 21, 2019 at 4:50 PMDo I have to do it individually for each element?

Marcia DexterReplied on November 21, 2019 at 4:50 PMWhat am I doing wrong? I would only if the person selects a check mark for the wedding element to show not have them all show up even if one check item is selected. https://form.jotform.com/marciadex/-wedding-ceremony-script-generator

Please note that when you create a condition to show a field, it will remain hidden until that condition is met. So, discrepancies like this would interfere in the expected behavior:
Field 18 is set to be shown as per condition 6, but it is also listed in conditions 4, 3, 1 to hide:
My suggestion is to eliminate those "HIDE" conditions, work with only "Show" conditions. Also, use "If all" instead o "If any" rules.
Here is my clone version, where not all the logic is implemented, but it is displaying scripts for each type of ceremony: https://form.jotform.com/93245648388976
