Rebecca...

The answer to this is JavaScript...

There's no way aside from active client-side code to do this because
there IS no interaction with the server. Blocking the caching of
documents is only relevant to new requests for the same resource... it
has nothing to do with how the back button works.

I haven't done it myself, though I've been planning on it for some
things. What I'd start out to do is use CF to create a flag of some
sort in the page, probably a date/time stamp, maybe in a hidden
formfield, maybe an empty div tag, something... Then in the OnLoad
event of the body tag, you'd fire off a JavaScript function that would
compare the current time to the timestamp given by CF... if it's
beyond a certain range, set document.location='page_expired.cfm' or
some such a thing.

That's my first thought... there are probably other/better ways to do
this. I think Google may help you more.

Hope that helps... again, since a page cannot be displayed until the
browser has transferred all the content to the disk cache on the local
machine, and the browser's back button is a client-side ONLY
operation, simply replaying a static page from cache (and NOT checking
with the server) then only way to do what you want is entirely on the
client side...

The no-cache tags are only for new requests for resources already in
the local browser disk cache...

Laterz,
J
