A matrix is a two-dimensional wizard. Really.

• A hierarchical wizard is a tree-type structure of categories with nodes that lead to "wizard pages".
• A sequential wizard is just a flat step-by-step sequence of "wizard pages".
• A matrix is a row-and-column grid of cells, each of which takes you to a "wizard page".

That's it!

For XSL template designers: The inherent structure that's generated in the resulting XML when you create a portfolio template that includes a matrix -- well, it's going to be different from basing it on a sequential or hierarchical wizard, of course. Use the "passthrough.xml" template to see the contents of your particular XML as you build your portfolio.
