 * Hi, I love the flexibility of this plugin, but I have one major problem — I’m
   using the multi-step forms to store data from form fields into session variables.
   This works great, but the problem is, I need to go back to that form and fill
   it out again with clear fields and use the same input ID’s. Problem is, every
   time I go back to the page, the fields are stored from the previous submission.
   Is there an easy way to do this within the plugin, or do I have to use JavaScript
   or JQuery? Is this a caching issue? I notice that fields stay filled in even 
   after the session expires — can you tell me where these variables are being stored,
   if there isn’t a way to clear them? Thank you for any help!

 * Hi,
 * Unfortunately, I couldn’t do this with CF7, so I switched to Formidable Forms,
   which has definitely solved all my issues.
