I think that the caching settings on IE only affect files written to disk.
There appears to be a memory-only cache which stores the very latest stuff
which is not affected. This is what causes the problem, as clearly it will
contain whatever was the last page so pressing back shows the page without
doing a HEAD request. It only does this for GET requests, so one way is to
use POSTS throughout...

Subject: IE caching again (was: expire_
Well, there's already been an extensive discussion on this in the
list just the last days all day long. Arrived to nothing.
(only you may try to issue
> response.setHeader("Cache-Control","no-cache");
> response.setHeader("Pragma","no-cache");
> response.setHeader("Expires",-1)
instead... Please try to search the list, there have been some
references on FAQs on caching..
My own guess is that maybe people that have trouble with this
have caching setting in their IE wrong? There are some
levels there, maybe you have a setting at the stricktest
level that prevents webapps that don't want there pages
cached from working at all?
