I've taken over a web application where at one point, the user has a long list 
of items to choose from to be compared to one another.  Each product has a 
checkbox next to it, and after checking off those products the user wants to 
see, the user submits the form and views a comparison table.

This would be simple if the form were all on one page, but it's not.  Since 
there can be potentially be a lot to choose from, the form is codes to display 
only 30 or so items at a time.  There's hyperlink navigation at the bottom of 
the page to go to next/previous page, or to go to page x, in order to see other 
items.  Clicking on any of these links executes a new request and the previous 
page's checkboxes lose their state.  So right now the user can only compare 
items if they happen to be listed on the same page in the same group of 30.

I need the user to be able to check boxes on any page and jump around to other 
pages of the form, checking or unchecking as they want, and have the form 
maintain it's overall state for when they finally submit.  Any leads on where I 
can get some tips on how to do this?

Thanks,
Christophe
