Hmm. I'm not sure I see this as a bug. What about a different scenario?
1. You are editing a page.
2. You realize you didn't mean to erase those two paragraphs.
3. So, you hit the attach button to cancel the edit.
4. You hit the edit button and you come back to the badly modified one.
This isn't great either. I wonder if this is a serious problem (i.e.
screws people up constantly) or it is one that goes away (i.e. after
having your saved text gone the first time, you don't make that mistake
again).
One of the problems with fixing this scenario is that IE and Netscape work
differently. Right now, I am going with the concept that no swiki page
should be cached, because it could always have changed. Netscape conforms
to that well. IE, on the other hand, caches pages when people hit back no
matter whether the server tells it that it should not be cached. So, is
there a solution that would make everyone happy. Unfortunately, no.
Peace and Luck!
