Refresh Page After Back Button Hit

kvarnerexpress
Hi. I have a page that is dynamically build through DOM manipulation. So, when I browse outside the page, and then click back, those dynamically created DOM objects are gone. Since I am also using JSP / Servlet technology, I can rebuild this page easily, which I have done.

Here is my dilemma. If the user leaves the dynamic page, then clicks back on their browser, I need the page they are going back to to refresh. I can't figure out how to do this. I've tried using the META tag, but it won't do it. Help would be appreciated. Thanks.

uhm.. you cant do that, i think.
Becouse it wont be the same on every web browser. Try to view that page in IE then try in Opera... then try all of browsers smile.gif
Do you see that Opera uses page from cashe memory...
im not some exprert but this may help you, or not biggrin.gif

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
<meta http-equiv="cache-control" content="no-cache"> <!-- tells browser not to cache -->
<meta http-equiv="expires" content="0"> <!-- says that the cache expires 'now' -->
<meta http-equiv="pragma" content="no-cache"> <!-- says not to use cached stuff, if there is any -->

Oops, I appear to have missed part of your post. Did you use any or all of those?

Someone new, responding with same problem as SqlByte.

I tried this solution and it didn't work. Just letting you know. Using Mozilla Firefox. I used all 3 lines. I tried another meta tag, with <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="2"> which does work, but after the initial refresh, I don't want the page to reload each and every time thereafter (always shows it's loading, something people round here would get real antsy about).

I think work on cache and meta tag will not help much, if you want to reload previous page when back is clicked.
I tried many things. Every browser has it own objects so it is difficult to implement.
One little and less effective solution is that you keep one button on your page say "Back"

<script lang='javascript'>
function btnback_click()//go back to previous
{
window.location.href="previous_page.php";
}
</script>

<body>
<input type=button name=btnback id=btnback value=Back onclick='java script:btnback_click()/>
</body>

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>
