Hi,

     Whenever our page is cached, back button displayes

cached page rather a fresh page. So if we can block the caching

anyhow, the back button will automatically get disabled. We can

achieve this working by setting two attributes in META tag.

that is

("Cache-Control", "no-cache") and

("Pragma", "No-cache")

You will need to set the appropriate HTTP header attributes to prevent the dynamic content output by the JSP page from being cached by the browser.

Just execute the following scriptlet at the beginning of your JSP pages to prevent them from being cached at the browser. You need both the statements to take care of some of the older browser versions. 

<%response.setHeader("Cache-Control","no-cache"); //HTTP 1.1response.setHeader("Pragma","no-cache"); //HTTP 1.0response.setDateHeader ("Expires", 0); //prevents caching at the proxy server%>
