Thanks Kym for your suggestion.
You wouldn't believe what I had to do to get this to work:
I had to write a wrapper around the code I wanted protected that
called the code with domain.com.au/page.cfm?x=#rand()# with a
cflocation tag.
This even works when the IE setting is at "Check for newer versions of
stored pages" is set to Never.
Surely I must be doing something wrong and theres got to be a better
way of making sure pages are not cached locally which seems to be my
problem when trying to read session variables.
Help!!!!
Best Regards,
WayGee
