Nodoby?

hey, I know my answer might be not the exact answer of your problem but with the view state. It preserve the view state by appending a # to your url.

here's the link to the plugin:
http://www.asual.com/jquery/address/docs/

let's say you have 3 tabs with id of tab1,tab2,tab3.
When you click tab1, you want to show the content of content1, tab2 for content2 and tab3 for content3..

so..

$(document).ready(function(){
             $("#tab1").click(function(){
                $.address.value("tab1");
            });
            $("#tab2").click(function(){
                $.address.value("tab2");               
            });
            $("#tab3").click(function(){
                $.address.value("tab3");
            });
}

$.address.change(function(event) {
            currentAddress=event.value;
            if(currentAddress=="/tab1"){
                $("#content1").show();
            }
            if(currentAddress=="/tab2"){
                $("#content2 ").show();
            }
            if(currentAddress=="/tab3"){
                $("#content3").show();
            }
        });

that way, you can always use your back button in your browser to preserve the viewstate as well as to bookmark and go directly to the page.
