asp 2.0 wizard navigation with javascript

Anyone know how to do this? I am trying to limit the amount of traffic
to/from the server.

Whether client side of server side, the concept is the same.

1. Set up "panels" (DHTML layers with JavaScript only) on the page.
2. Hide all but the current step.
3. Do not show finish until you have all required information

NOTE: There is a danger with doing this 100% on the client side. While it
reduces traffic, large wizards can take longer than time out to finish. If
the user is logged in, all information is lost when the submit button is
pushed. Make sure that round trips are a problem before you nix the idea of
returning to the server (there are plusses and minuses to each approach).
