hi Duraiswamy
I tried the code sent by you. However it seems that the browser is still
caching the page as when i access some other site after accessing my servlet
and click on the back button of the browser it shows me the same page
indicating that it hasn't expired.
can you tell what could be wrong?
regards ,
Nitin
