The Gen2 SRP is designed as a wizard.  The number of steps in the wizard is configurable through the template.  The Gen2 SRP handles creating the navigation buttons as well as navigation backwards and forwards through the wizard.  All variables referenced across all pages of the wizard are maintained by the Gen2 SRP, such that values are preserved as the user progresses backwards and forwards through the wizard.

Values are maintained on the user's browser (in the browser's Document Object Model) until a commit action is performed.  Users should be warned not to refresh the browser's page as on some browsers this causes the DOM to reset and all variable contents to be lost.
