Creating multi-step form using angular - angularjs

Question

I want to create multi step form using angularjs.
Here is the code:
(function () {
"use strict";
angular.module("gameManagement", ["ui.router", "ngAnimate", "ngResource", "toaster"])
.config(["$stateProvider", "$urlRouterProvider", function ($stateProvider, $urlRouterPorvider) {
$urlRouterPorvider.otherwise("/Game/Home");
$stateProvider
.state("Home", {
url: "/Game/Home",
templateUrl: "/app/Game/GameView.html",
controller: "GameController as vm"
});
$stateProvider
.state("Log", {
url: "/Game/Log",
templateUrl: "/app/Log/GameLogView.html",
controller: "GameLogController as vm"
});
$stateProvider
.state("MultiStepForm", {
url: "/Game/MuiltyStepForm",
templateUrl: "/app/MultiStepForm/MuiltyStepForm.html"
});
$stateProvider
.state("MultiStepForm.view", {
url: "/Game/MuiltyStepForm/view",
templateUrl: "/app/MultiStepForm/MuiltyStepForm.html"
})
.state('MultiStepForm.view.step1', {
url: '/step1',
templateUrl: '/app/MultiStepForm/FormStep1.html'
})
.state('MultiStepForm.view.step2', {
url: '/step2',
templateUrl: '/app/MultiStepForm/FormStep2.html'
})
.state('MultiStepForm.view.step3', {
url: '/step3',
templateUrl: '/app/MultiStepForm/FormStep3.html'
})
}]);
})();
I get this error when I try to move to state MultiStepForm.view.step2
Error: Could not resolve '.MultiStepForm.view.step2' from state 'MultiStepForm.view'
Any idea why I get the error?
And can I create nested state inside nested state?

Hi this is because you are using nested states so in your example
.state('MultiStepForm.view.step1', {
url: '/step1',
templateUrl: '/app/MultiStepForm/FormStep1.html'
})
.state('MultiStepForm.view.step2', {
url: '/step2',
templateUrl: '/app/MultiStepForm/FormStep2.html'
})
.state('MultiStepForm.view.step3', {
url: '/step3',
templateUrl: '/app/MultiStepForm/FormStep3.html'
})
step2 inherits from step1 and not from multistepform.view
I think you should be able to fix it by doing this :
.state('MultiStepForm.view.step1', {
url: '/step1',
templateUrl: '/app/MultiStepForm/FormStep1.html'
})
.state('MultiStepForm.view.step2', {
url: '/step2',
parent: MultiStepForm.view,
templateUrl: '/app/MultiStepForm/FormStep2.html'
})
.state('MultiStepForm.view.step3', {
url: '/step3',
parent: MultiStepForm.view,
templateUrl: '/app/MultiStepForm/FormStep3.html'
})
