Greeting all, im having a small problem making my site comptable with NS6. Ive found making this site compatable has been easier, than compatiblity between IE and NS4, but right at the death i have come across a little problem.

The problem arises, that on my site i have a series of onLoad events attached to a series of images, the function of which is to re-size the tables and images for different screen sizes. It all works well does the re-sizing, but when you use the back or forward buttons on NS6, the onLoad events on the images fails to enforce. Any ideas why or how to get around this. Also has anyone coem across this as well?

maybe it's that when you hit 'back' the browser uses its cache - thus doesn't actually 'loads' the page
try to change the settings of the browser to no cache, and if it solves the problem, force your page to reload (either using a meta tag, or setting it on the web server, or using document.reload(true) - there have been many many threads on this subject, so if you're stuck i'd suggest you perfom a search in this forum (use the search tab !))
 
Well, the the problem is definetely with cache, and the meta refresh thing works, but surely there is a piece of code that is better than that
 
how did you get it working ? what solution did you find ? - just in case someone with the same question as you comes here, please let the answer along with the question !
