title: jQuery submit form on link click
body: <p>I have a big form that is split over 3 pages (each page is self contained i.e. only contain part of the form wrapped around form tags). I have page buttons so the user can navigate between pages e.g. page 1, page 2, page 3 and each page is loaded depending on a page variable in the url querystring i.e. </p>
  
  <pre><code>www.myurl.com?page=1
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>What I want to happen is that when the user clicks on the page button the form is submitted but also passed the page button clicked in a post/get (I don't mind which) value i.e. <code>next_page = page number clicked</code></p>
  
  <p>What is the best way to do this? I am using jQuery in my code so a solution using this would be good</p>
