1) optional: do js data validation for user-friendliness/cancel form
submit if errors;
2) validate form data on server & return to form if errors;
3) if you need form's data in next step - duplicate form into a session
var;
4) cflocate to next step.

how about that?

Role: no server side validation for this particular requirement. Hence, 2) is not applicable.

3) & 4) not really relevant per requirement
