I did this a lot when I built my quote program for my previous company. I have all my code at home, hence no way to give examples that I know work, however what I did was dump the form to a php page which processed the form and then used the header.location pieces to dump the user to the page they needed to go.
If you want to play with it some: http://lonewolf.homelinux.net/quoter/ None of the information contained in it is accurate (to my knowledge) however it works to play with for a bit. Every page you interact with (when adding items and such) puts information into a MySQL db, but as it moves through, you can't hit the pages doing the work.
