    when someone hits the back button on internet explorer it refeshes the page which doesnt happen on firefox,This is causing problems because of sessions I have set in my php program,is there a line of code that I can put in to stop this happening?

    You want to stop internet explorer refreshing, or you want to stop firefox not refreshing?

    I think the answer is similar in either case. No.

    The problem is with the settings in the browsers themselves, and more specifically in the caching settings. I don't know of anyway to override the cache settings in the code, and in fact if there is it would be great for a site I'm working on too. I gave up on it though.

    In java script you could try erasing the back history, but this will generally just annoy people.
