The Back Button

[qbennett]

Hi,

Back to PHP/HTML 101.

I have a simple form that requests a date, and following the POST, the user is show a list of their transactions for that date.

They can then click on the ID of any of those transactions to display the details.

I would like them to be able to click Back to re-dislpay the list, but they get a 'Page expired' message. Clicking refresh a few times re-displays the list.

I know I could but a 'Return to list' link, which re-submits the query, but takes time, which seems unnecessary. Is there a smart way around this - I'm sure there must be because it is such a common navigation mechanism.

Thanks in advance.

Instead of using POST as the method, try using GET. That will put the Query in the url string and shouldn't need refreshing when using the back button.

update your php.ini file, change the setting 'session.cache_limiter' to:
'session.cache_limiter = private, must-revalidate'

that should do the job.🙂
