There are some things in life that you just can't control and can't have the
way you want, period, no matter how much you may want it. This rule applies
to most subsets of life, including software engineering. This is one of
those things. You just don't have that much control over the browser. Live
with it. (One is tempted to ask why you so adamantly want to force a blank
page on your users, especially when all they would have to do is hit the
Reload button anyway, but I've learned that asking such questions is as
pointless as trying to get total control of the browser.)

Personally, if I put on my user hat, I don't want "those engineers" to have
that kind of control over my browser. Who the heck are you to tell me that I
can't go back and view a previous page when I want to?

Some one had posted this in the forum before. Try it.

Set these headers:
response.setHeader("Cache-Control", "no-cache");
response.setHeader("Pragma", "no-cache");
response.setHeader("Expires", "-1");

And put this in the <head> tag of your page
<DEFANGED_meta http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache">

Hi all,
   How do i expire a page i.e. if the user clicks on back button he
shouldn't be able to see anything. I am using

<html>
<head>
<DEFANGED_META http-equiv="expires" content="Tue, 20 Aug 1996 14:25:27 GMT">
</head>

in jsp but it's not working.

Thanks in advance.

Mahesh.
