Parser Error: The server block is not well formed

[Assimalyst]

Hi,

I have a login/logout application, which works fine using sessions. But
when the user logs out, they can navigate back to the previous page
usng the back button, apparently a perculiar querk of the cache.

The following code should apparently rectify this

<%@ Response.Expires = 0 %>
<%@ Response.ExpiresAbsolute = Now() -1 %>
<%@ Response.AddHeader "pragma", "no-cache" %>
<%@ Response.AddHeader "cache-control", "private" %>
<%@ Response.CacheControl = "no-cache" %>

I have placed this directly after the following line

<%@ Page language="c#" CodeBehind="AddAssess.aspx.cs"
AutoEventWireup="false" Inherits="PDTdb.AddAssess" %>

but when I try to view the page i get the following error:

"Parser Error: The server block is not well formed"

and the first line <%@ Response.Expires = 0 %> is highlighted.

Any idea what the problem is?

Thanks.

I think you want to remove the @ from all of those.

or make use of the @OutputCache directive...

Change:

and the first line <%@ Response.Expires = 0 %> is highlighted.

To:

<% Response.Expires = 0; %>

As KArl said, remove the @, but also note the semicolon.

Thanks guys,
Thats solved the problem for the first two lines, i'd tried a few
combinations of < and @ etc, but it seems it needed the ;.

Still having trouble with the third line though. I've applied Brock's
idea to all the lines, but now the third is highlighted with the
following error:

Compilation error: CS1002: ; expected

any suggestions?

thanks again

AddHeader is a method -- it needs parenthesis around the parameters. And
then, yes, a semicolon at the end.
