History.Back gives me an empty form

[SonJ]

Hello there,

This problem is driving me nuts!

At the place where I work, we all have standardised browsers. We are not able to configure any of the internet options, and are all using the same version of IE.

So why is it that when I am developing code, and chose to do a history back (using a button I have created and not the browser function) I can see the form with the fields populated with the data entered. Whereas, if the person who has requested development tests the application, and performs the same action, they get the this page has expired etc etc message and needs to refresh the page. When they hit F5 the form is cleared.

Any help/ pointers would be much appreciated!

[mumbojumbo]

are you using

javascript:history.back()

Hi,

Yes, and in some cases (where it is necessary) I am using history.go(-2).

I am coming round to the idea of it being an issue with browser configuration, though am not sure how the discrepancy occurs as we are all supposed to be using a standardised browser.

Again, ant pointers would be much appreciated.
