Answer to No-Cache problem
Refresh Page After Back Button Hit

This is what I do to accomplish the task of disabling the cache..

The head tag at the end of the document is important!

<html>

<head>

<META HTTP-EQUIV="Pragma" CONTENT="no-cache">

<META HTTP-EQUIV="Expires" CONTENT="-1">

</head>

<body>

Body stuff

</body>

<HEAD>

<META HTTP-EQUIV="Pragma" CONTENT="no-cache">

<META HTTP-EQUIV="Expires" CONTENT="-1">

</HEAD>

</html>

Need to Reload/Refresh page after a Back is done, keeping prev data entered on that page
Refresh Page After Back Button Hit

Trying to add a captcha to a website. I am using code that I found on line, and it has to work. When the user enters a code, the htm code calls a php file that checks validity. If invalid, I have a message and sent the user back to the form/htm page and their previously entered data still displays - as well as the old invalid code they entered AND the old displayed captcha image. At this point, the actual captcha code and the displayed captcha code are out of synch. Using the related reload link for the captcha image takes care of the problem, as does a refresh - the code and displayed code will match, the users previous data is still available, and the user just has to change the code that was previously entered as the codes have changed. Failure to refresh/reload the captcha image or the page will create a mismatch again.

Need to know how to solve this:

1.) Need to have the page refresh after doing back - this resolves the problem w/o the user having to do anything.

2.) Another way to handle this which is even better - How does one go about submitting the users data for check, and having the original forms page display an error message, clear out the user entered invalid code, and refresh the displayed captcha code? This way, the user is still on the same form page, their data is still present, they get a message indicating that the codes didnt match, and new codes are available for another try...

Neophyte in the coding, but understand the algorithms/logic and behind it. Just need to the code, etc. Currently, I am pulling back a cached form/htm page with data, that apparently kicks off a new code, leaves the users input available (which is good), but the captcha displayed code is not refreshed, and that is the big issue with the current set up. (clearning out the user entered code too would be nice).

Have tried using what I have found here in the forums, but various caching code doesnt seem to take care of it. Putting in a refresh/reload into the htm code doesn't get run (in my thoughts), since one is doing a BACK in the browser and so this is cached, and actually doing a redirect to the calling forms/htm page will reset everything the user entered - and everyone knows how much that could be hated.

Thanks!

Add this in your Header part of view page:

< script language="JavaScript">
< !--
Javascript:window.History.Forward(1);
//-->
< /script>

Remove space before tags..

Add this inside body tag:

< body topmargin="0" leftmargin="0" rightmargin="0" bottommargin="0" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
< body onUnload="OperaReload()">"

Remove space before tags.. -reply by Arjun Urs

You can do this with meta tags. It won't actually refresh on every visit, but it will tell the clients computer not to store information about the page and instead completely re-download it on each view. You can use the following meta tags (don't know how many are necessary, but it wouldn't hurt to use all of them):

CODE

This is okay, not too bad, but it's a fairly dodgy way of doing it, although it works well enough.

Inculde the below code in each page of the project...

<input type="hidden" id="refreshed" value="no">

Though this is not the real solution butone of the trick we can do to acheive this

O_o This is a decent solution, because it tells the browser that the page hasn't been refreshed, but it doesn't actually fix the problem, because the browser won't refresh.

Best you can do is create a javascript to tell the browser to refresh the page AFTER you hit the back button, and I'm sure you can find a script like that on the internet somewhere...if you really can't, then I can probably make one for you...
