OK, simple scenario.

a.php has some post variables that are sent to b.php

b.php sets a session variable 'visited' to flag that it has been opened.

a.php looks to see if the session variable 'visited' has been set. If so, it reloads the post variables, also held in session variable.

However, pressing the 'Back' button from b.php doesn't pass the 'visited' session variable so the post fields in a.php are unpopulated.

BUT - press F6 when revisiting a.php and the session variables are in scope and all works properly - even after going to b.pgp and pressing the 'Back' button.

Is there some behaviour I'm overlooking here?

Any help appreciated, Rob
