[phplib] cacheing and broken backbutton From: David West (westd <email protected>)

Hi,

I'm using PHPLIB with Session management and authorization. My problem is
thus:

When I turn off cacheing, the back button is broken. When I click the back
button, a blank page appears, with the following source:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HTML><HEAD>
<META content="text/html; charset=windows-1252"
http-equiv=Content-Type></HEAD>
<BODY></BODY></HTML>
The URL displayed is correct though.

When I set cacheing to 'private', the back button works, but the old content
is always displayed, even if you click refresh, and you have to hit
CTRL-refresh to update the content. The application is a web based email
checker, so the content changes all the time.

The application is up on http://www.kerrysports.com/mail/lite/p3mail.php3 if
you'd like to see it for yourselves.

Any ideas? The behaviour I'd like is to leave cacheing off, and when the
user hits the back button, the previous page reloads. Alternatively with
cacheing on, where a simple refresh instead of ctrl-refresh works.

Thanks,
Dave
