r they Browser cookies/cache??

[GeeWond3r]

Whenever a user enters in data in a web form, it seems it's being cached. My webpages do not require cookies. Can someone tell me what/how these cache work? I've a field (let's say a credit card #) that I do not want cached or displayed the next time (when a user enters the 1st character and data are populated). So how would I script -or- enable it so all the past data does not populate?

If you dont want the past data to get populated....include these lines on the top:

<% Response.CacheControl = "no-cache" %>
<% Response.AddHeader "Pragma", "no-cache" %>
<% Response.Expires = -1 %>

Ok, I added the 3 lines to the top of my asp page (that contains the form) and it still populates old data. I added new form fields n still no go! hmm..

I've tried this no-cache methodology from various reference sites:

... No Luck! Past data are still being populated! Stump-stump-stump!!!

It could be a client side issue, have they turned off AUTOCOMPLETE ?

But the thing is... we can't rely on the client to control and enable/disable the configuration. Besides, I've gotta script it so it'll surpasses the client browsers' DEFAULT settings.

Thought this thing was suppose to be easy?!.

errRRR..
