> I tried to use the wizard framework and found it sufficient only for 'static' wizard applications (which in my view are very rare). The FW forces you to create your pages in advance including the contents of the pages. A wizard rarely is used in that manner. Typically, values from one page are used in constructing the next page (i.e. the next page is built dynamically based on the selections in the last page).
> A related issue is that the values entered by the user are only available after you 'commit' the form. This is not suitable since you would like to use the values entered by the user to construct the dynamic pages (i.e. there should be some means for partial or page level commits).
> I have 'patched' the source to allow for the first case (a dynamic wizard). However, the implementation is not very clean. It would be nice if the framework handled it transparently.
