Understood; however, I either have to regenerate Page 1 with a new error
message, or stop at Page 2 with the error message and then resubmit to
Page 1 with all the 'good' variables intact and figure out how to
check/uncheck checkbox buttons on Page 1.

I may have figured an easy solution explained in my very recent post in
response to mbstevens, i.e., print the error message on Page 2 and use
javascript to return the guy to Page 1 as held in the cache. The only
issue I see with this method is unchecking the checkboxes or radio buttons
that were incorrectly checked.
