Is there some reason why you can't use a single ArrayCollection
dataProvider to hold all of the data. If all of the data is in a
single object, you can avoid having to create multiple instances of
the same view, unless that is the desired effect. Depending on the
complexity of each record, each row of the ArrayCollection would
represent a seperate instance of the data. Each instance would be
indentified by it's index. When the user hits the next or previous
button, you simply increase or decrease the selected index. This
approach would also allow for empty records (array elements). When
the user adds a record, you would simply append the array with a new
element. Not knowing exactly what you are trying to do makes this
just a guess. But, from what I've read it sounds possible. :)
