Dynamic Navigation

I am designing a web application to offer services to customers. In form1 I
have listed all the services available using CheckBoxlist control. I have a
different webform for customization of each of the services that is being
offered.
I want that when a user makes selection of services in the checkboxlist
control on form1, based on his selection of services he shall be redirected
to the pages for selected services one by one in the order of services
selected. Is this Possible?

If yes please guide me how shall i proceed? Any help is appreciated.

Thank You.

You'll have to store the list they've selected. Perhaps you'd store it as
an arraylist in session state, although there are many other options.
Then you need a way to navigate between the selected pages in order, which
could be done fairly easily with the ASP.NET 2.0 Wizard control. If you're
not able to use ASP.NET 2.0 then you could create such a thing manually with
multiple panels on a single form and some next/back buttons.

Another, more efficient, approach would be to create a common form base
class that examines the list the user has selected and directs the user to
the appropriate page based on their current place within the list.

Thank you for your response Steve. itried responding to your reply on the
same thread several times but could not succeed hence starting a new thread
with all the details.

I am storing user's selection in a database table. I am using ASP.net 1.1
hence cannot use wizard control.

I would request you to please explain how to create such a control manually.

I would also request you to please elaborate on creating a common form base
class. how does it work and how to go about it?

Please help. I am a final year student and stuck up in my project due to
this.
