No change to the modules is needed except marking the Ok/Save buttons with some globally unique id. When the user clicks Next, Save button will be clicked by ajax. It will find the submit button by the id and it can also wait for the result. After that the Next button will be clicked/submitted (still by ajax). I think that Ok/Cancel serves a different purpose than Next/Back. By mixing the behaviour of these 2, we would create a strong link between basesystem and all other modules, which would be hard(er) to maintain. We would need all other modules to: - Have both Ok/Save AND Cancel button - Placement of Ok/Cancel button will have to be the same in all modules (otherwise user will be confused while base system setup) - Use our special functions to generate the buttons. The Back/Next buttons will be rendered differently for first and last module from basesystem steps list (no button/Next for first, Back/Finish for last) From my POV, using ajax to click on the save buttons is a better solution.
