I am having problems using sessions and caching. I have an application
that requires you to log in to be able to access certain pages. The
pages that require a login include a file which checks the session data
and ensures that you have a valid session etc. My problem is that if
the user logs out, and then goes back to these secure pages they still
display as if the user was logged in. I know how to stop them caching
with headers, but the problem is that if I do this, then the user cannot
use their back button because the browser displays the following message
:
----------------------
Warning: Page has Expired The page you requested was created using
information you submitted in a form. This page is no longer available.
As a security precaution, Internet Explorer does not automatically
resubmit your information for you.
To resubmit your information and view this Web page, click the Refresh
button.
----------------------
So in summary I need a way to stop pages from caching but still allow
the user to use their "back" button to go back to them as long as they
are logged in. I have seen this done and it is possible some how....
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
