I am wondering about setPageRefreshOnBacktrackEnabled. Does the
behavior of the refreshing actually depend on the browser?
I increment a counter variable in appendToResponse and display it in
the page. It does not get incremented when backtracking, indicating
that appendToResponse is not being called. This is in deployment. I
seem to remember someone mentioning that it behaves differently in
development.
I tested with Safari, Internet Explorer, and Netscape, all on a Mac.
Out of the three, Safari and IE backtracked quietly, displaying the old
value for the counter, and Netscape asked if I wanted to post the data
again because the page expired. After Netscape posting the data, the
counter was incremented and displayed as such.
The situation I am in is that after a store checkout is final I don't
want the user to backtrack back into the various checkout pages. I
thought I could do this by returning a redirect for those pages after
the checkout is final, but appendToResponse isn't even getting called
except for Netscape. I thought about terminating the session after the
final checkout, but that doesn't help the browser caching behavior I am
seeing, and leads to a session timeout error if the browser is
refreshed.
Any ideas on fixing my backtracking issue?
Thanks,
Ron Wagner
