When to use this component

How it works
There are multiple journeys in this component:
- Users say ‘yes’ the page is useful and get the response ‘Thank you for your feedback’.
- Users say ‘no’ and it opens to allow the user to enter their email address where they will be able to input their email address to receive a feedback form.
- Users say ‘Report a problem with this page’ and we ask them ‘what were you doing?’ and ‘what went wrong?’.
This component is designed to sit at the bottom of pages on GOV.UK to allow users to submit feedback on that page.
This component uses JavaScript for expanding and collapsing and also for submitting form responses.
