The issue you're running into is the browser caching the page data. there's an easy fix.
add this within the HEAD of your document:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="PRAGMA" CONTENT="NO-CACHE">
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Expires" CONTENT="-1">
Add this to the top of your PHP header file:
<?
Header('Cache-Control: no-cache');
Header('Pragma: no-cache');
?>
