He guys,
If the file doesn't live in the cache, the page must be reloaded in order to
be viewed, and the text boxes will be refreshed. In a sense, every time a
user hits the back button, they are pulling the page from cache unless it is
not in cache, or there is some code that forces the page to reload. When
the user tries to go back to the page, there will be a message saying that
the page has expired, and to use the reload button to view it. Try it, I
use it myself for the same reason. I wouldn't lie to you!
ps. there is a way to disable the back button, when i find the code, i'll
let you know.
-Scott
