page expiry

[Anon]

Hi folks
I have a bunch of forms that use sessions for some of the vars.

If I click 'back' I get the 'This page has expired' page.

How can I stop this happening?
Is it somthing to do with sessions?
I should be able to go back and seee the same entries I made without re-submitting shouldn't I?

Cheers

Nick

This is because your forms are using the post method. If you want to avoid this, I suggest using the get method for forms. Hope that helps.

Aaaaarrgh!
It doesn't work,
what else could it be?
all my forms are include() files and all my pages use sessions

any ideas?

i'll redirect you to the php.net manual (only because i think it has the answer you are looking for) http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.session-cache-limiter.php

basically, you should, at the top of your .php files that use sessions, put:

session_cache_limiter('public');
session_start();

and it should do the trick..
