Has anyone designed any Wizards with OAS 8i?

In our app, we have some pages A, B and C using OAS 8i. Normally the user has to click on some menu bar items in order to kick off these pages manually. I need to find a way to kick these pages off in "wizard" mode. And, of course, I do not want to have to code the page more than once. What I'd really like to do is this: User attempts to perform action X. The system checks to see that all requisite data is available in the database. The system determines that it is not, so it displays a message and then kicks off "wizard Z", which consists of page A followed by page B followed by page C. Then of course when the user has completed all the pages, it would then take him then to page X. Assume that pages A, B and C are already coded, so we want a minimal workable solution at this point.

Has anyone ever implemented anything like this, that can give me some words of wisdom? Can the HTML output from one page procedure be edited by another one in any way (for example to change the form action name to direct it to, instead of the "normal" one)? How about redirecting to another page?

As a possible implementation, does anyone have any familiarity with the "standard" ASP implementation, where each ASP sends its actions back to itself to be processed?

Any ideas are welcome, as are any better places to post these things. Thanks!
