Hi everyone,
I am experiencing some serious troubles with a web form application I'm developing.
I have a html document, the DOM tree of which I change consecutively with javascript (e.g. the result of an XSLT is inserted).
When the user submits the form on the page, he's redirected to a confirmation page. But when the user hits the back button, the whole state of the HTML DOM tree in the browser's memory has been reset, making it impossible to fill in series of forms in a fast way. How can the last state be recalled?
Ideally, the confirmation page redirect should be prevented (it is sent by a form.cgi script to which I seem to be bound.) so that that the memory state is not lost in the first place.
The solution should work in (at least) firefox and IE.
How can I solve this dilemma? Any clues?
Eternal gratitude would be your reward...
