Hey, This explanation is awesome. "...then if the user hits the back button, if (and only IF) the form did NOT have radios selected, the radios should clear." The above scenario in my case is : "...then if the user hits the back button, the form did HAVE radios selected, the radios should clear." How to do that ?

Please describe your use case further. Example: Use Case: Complete Personal Information #1. The user fills out form. Form: Textbox ("firstname"): - Max=10 chars - Required=lowercase Textbox ("lastname"): - Max=10 chars - Required=lowercase Radio Button Choice ("age-range") - values coming from application scope bean ("mychoices") - Choices are (Iteration 1): Key Value 1 0 to 21 2 22 to 40 3 41 to 60 4 over 60 Action choices: Submit - form is submitted, go to #2 Cancel - form is cancelled, go to main menu Reset - form is reset (this is an html reset) Clear - form is cleared of all values #2 When submitted, should save to database Known Exceptions: a. Validation errors - (reference validation table) b. Connection errors - (same as above) c. blah, blah, blah #3 Re-Display information (as it was saved) Action choices: a. user must use top level navigation to continue b. User hits back button - (this behavior is disallowed, and enforced with form-based token validation) -------------------------------------------- Now, expecting functionality from anything after the user hits the back button should not be allowed, but as I mentioned in a prior email....if you do this... myform.jsp -> /doForm.do -> myresults.jsp ...then if the user hits the back button, if (and only IF) the form did NOT have radios selected, the radios should clear. **THIS IS IMPORTANT** Given the same scenario as above, if there are validation errors and the user is return to the 'myform.jsp' hitting the reset button ***WILL NOT*** reset the fields to what they were before the user hit submit. Now, if the user hits the back button right now, and the hit the reset button, then yes, it will do as I said above. I hope this helps you, if not, then please provide us with more to go on.
