Hi,
Unfortunately, there is nothing which can stop the user from pressing back
button and again submitting the page, but you can have some means by which you
can monitor on the page that it is not getting visited using back/forward
button, i.e. refrainig the browser from caching the page.
One way could be using the <META HTTP-EQUIV-REFRESH....> tag so that the page
will refresh itself, and, in the page scope, U can set some variables which will
take U ( i.e. controller - servlet will do this ) to the home page directly
Other way may be using a session level variable which identifies whether the
page can be navigated in such a way !!!
*** For more information on disabling caching, check out Phil Paxton's great
article: Cache No More. http://www.learnasp.com/learn/cachenomore.asp ***
This is for ASP but similar technique can be devised for JSP as well.

Subject: Re: Back button
Hi Mihir,
I have an idea.
As far as I understood, JSP Page 1 forwards to Servlet which forwards to
JSP Page 2 (the status page), right?
Make another JSP, JSP Page 3. Let the Servlet forward to JSP Page 3 instead
of the status page. On this Page 3, Output to the browser a (meta) refresh
to either the status page or your homepage, depending on, say, Referrer??
This way, when the user presses back button from the status page, he goes
to JSP Page 3, which sends him a refresh tag which redirects to the
homepage (or any other page)
If you want to, you can put all this "Page 3" code within the Status page
itself, somehow.
Oh, if you're sending info from the servlet to the Status page via the
forward tag (or whatever), u might have to use beans (or whatever)
If I'm completely wrong, hey, i'm a newbie.
Good luck,
Erwin
