Question

With using MVC3, I am hoping for a decent wizard multistep approach. I need to have previous, next , save buttons. Both Next and Save will be saving data to the database (more of holding staging table), yet I don’t want to make the navigation a nightmare to code and manage. I use to do this stuff with webforms, but I am hoping for a good solution with mvc3. I really don’t want sessions or cookies. I did notice in the Apress book “Pro ASP.NET MVC 2” by Steven Sanderson. On page 478 he says “There are unlimited ways in which you could accomplish this…..” (regarding a wizard multistep form).

He mentions collecting and preserving data with Microsoft MVC Futures dll download, and then serializing hidden input tags.

I wanted to hear back from some experts out there on this approach vs. other approaches/solutions.

Thanks in advance.
