caching a logging out

[transparent]

I have a page, index.asp which has a logout button. On pressing this button the browser redirects to logout.asp which contains the following code:


*****************************************************
<%option explicit%>
<%response.buffer = true%>
<%session.lcid=3081%>

<%
session(&quot;user_id&quot= null
session(&quot;users_name&quot = null
session(&quot;department_id&quot = null
session(&quot;department_name&quot = null

%>

<script>window.location.href=&quot;index.asp&quot;</script>
******************************************************

This should redirect to a different version of index.asp (due to null values of session variables). It doesn't the index page is just a cached version of the original index.asp. Whats going wrong??

Cheers
for any help

Why not just use <% response.redirect=&quot;index.asp&quot; %> -Phil

why don't you try killing the session altogether..

<%
Session.abondon
response.redirect &quot;index.asp&quot;
%>

Yes I suggest killing the session too. Do that - along with the ASP redirect (instead of Javascript) -Phil

I seem to have problems using response.redirect as well.

Any ideas what may be causing it?

ok in order not to cache your webpage try putting these lines on the top of your asp pages
response.expires = -1
response.cache-control = &quot;Private&quot;

and kill all the Session by doing this
Session.abandon

Then if u want to redirect with javaScript try writeing your jScript code in a function

function goback() {
window.lovation = &quot;index.asp&quot;
}

then in the body tag call this function onLiad=&quot;goback()&quot;
also check if a user tried to enter your cached page use the if statement if session(&quot;id&quot = &quot;&quot; then response.redirect &quot;index.asp&quot;
hope it will help your problems
