I might be oversimplifying, but is there any reason you couldn't place an
<input type="hidden" name="question_num" value="${question_num}"/> in your
template?
That would allow you to put the question number into the template, at least.
An alternate )and possibly better) solution would be to add the last
question number asked to the user's session, and then use the session to
determine what to display/save.
I might be oversimplifying, but this seems like a viable course for you.
