Hi James,
I had a similar problem where I wanted the users to press the back button,
and found that under cfmx all previous data entry on the screen was
vaporised.
I got around it by adding
<cfheader name="cache-control" value="private">
in application.cfm
I'm not sure if your issue is the same, but it's worth trying.
Cheers,
Phil.
