[Please do not mail me a copy of your followup]

This has come up a couple times on the WiX mailing list in the past and
just came up again the other day, so I decided to write up a blog post
on the technique.

    Branching Wizard Sequences With WiX
    <http://wp.me/pyVNs-fC>

    Wizard dialog sequences are common in Windows Installer packages
    as they lead the user through a series of questions to customize
    the installation of a product. Welcome to the install, select the
    installation directory, ready to install and so-on are common
    dialogs present in the wizard dialog sequence. Sometimes you need
    to make a choice between two dialogs based on the user's input,
    however:

    <http://legalizeadulthood.files.wordpress.com/2009/10/wizardsequence2.png>

    So you'll need to branch to different dialogs on the Next button
    of the Installation Type dialog (and the Back button of the
    Install Location dialog) based on the user's input. This post
    describes the best way to achieve this branching dialog behavior
    in Windows Installer, using Windows Installer XML (WiX) as the
    authoring tool.
