Page seems to be remembering HttpSessionState

[Nathan Sokalski]

I have a page that determines some of what to display based on
HttpSessionState. When I go to it the first time, it displays everything the
way I would expect. Then I go to another page on my site (by clicking links,
so I am still using the same browser window), which calls Session.Abandon()
to start a new Session. Then when I click a link to go to the page that uses
the HttpSessionState, it still uses the values that were in it when I left.
If I then click the browser's Refresh button, it uses the values from the
new Session. What do I need to do to make the user not need to click the
Refresh button? Thanks.

It's the browser issue.. ensure that the caching is turned off.

Mark the page uncacheable. Either set the page direction <%@ OutputCache
Location="None" %> or call Response.Cache.SetCacheability(HttpCacheability.NoCache).
