I take it you're probably using IE 5. That's a decent piece of software, better (IMHO) than it's Windows counterpart, EXCEPT it doesn't handle forms worth a crap. I can't develop in it because you can't refresh a form post. Whereas you get a dialogue in all other versions of all other browsers asking you to click OK to refresh the post, IE 5 for Mac just drops them. And as you say, if you try and click your back button to submit the form again, the values are generally gone.
