Weird Problem: Auto-Jump page doesn't show up in "BACK" history

[VB Programmer]

I created a page which I am using to prevent the user from hitting the BACK
button. I'll call it my "Auto Jump" page. When it is called it basically
auto-redirects to a page specified in the QueryString. (We'll call the page
it goes to the "destinatio n page".) If the user hits BACK on the
destination page it should goto the "Auto Jump" page which should put you
right back to where you hit the button.

In Page_Load of this "Auto Jump" page I simply put
"response.redir ect(xxx.aspx)".

The redirect works fine! But, when I click the BACK button from the
"Destinatio n Page" it goes to the page that called the "Auto Jump" page. In
the "BACK" button's history I don't see this "Auto Jump" page. Any ideas
why?

Thanks.

the browser does not cache a redirect response. you need to render a page
with a meta tag, or client code that redirects.
