If you insist on doing this serverside, then personally I'd probably 
use hidden form fields. If you're open to doing it client side, then 
I'd probably out the information into five <div> sections, only one of 
which would be visible at any one time. using dhtml. What you want is 
the CSS visibility attribute. Only one <div> would be visible at any 
one time.
