i have a user profile oriented website where every page has a form in it. I want people to submit the form and cause a refresh...

I also want the page to refresh if they hit the back button so that the form they've submitted cannot be submitted again.. I have a poll where people vote, I don't want them to revote.... this is a common theme in the website with interactivity.. .

any thoughts about this would be appreciated :) thanks guys

if i understood what you want you can make an Ajax update panel.
take from the .asp components an Ajax panel change the updatemode to conditional and when you want to refresh it do this
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. UpdatePanel1.Update();
as for the pole i am not good in .asp but you can do it with cookies

I think you can use the code below in between the <head> tags, it just tells the browser not to cache it, which would force it to download the page each time, or refresh. I think there are better ways though.

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. <META HTTP-EQUIV="Pragma" CONTENT="no-cache">

I am having a strange problem. The program is a bit complex, but I'll try to simplify what I can. I apologize if this is complicated, but I think this would still be simpler than posting a bunch of source code. If you want me to post code, though, just say so. In a nutshell, I've got an ASP.NET application that has one main ASPX page. On that ASPX page, it has a user control (an ASCX) that displays the actual data and controls I need.

I have a page that displays a picture. In the page load I figure out which image and then do a StudentPicutre.imageurl = <some file name> But if you use the browser's back button, enter different criteria, then click the view button, the code runs to load a different picture, but the old one shows up until I hit the browser's refresh button. What am I doing wrong? How do I force the browser to load the new image? Thanks,

Before someone flames me, I know this is the VB.NET groups, nonetheless, the asp.net guys seems to have almost disapeared from the aspnet groups so I thought I would ask this here. I have a problem with an aspx web form in that if I refresh, it simply resubmits the form and causes multiple submissions, in this case the form is one which adds records to the database and refreshing a previously submitted item repeats each time the refresh...

Hi, Apologies if this is a newbie question, I haven't found the answer in any faqs. I have an asp.net 2.0 page that sets session variables and then redirects to another page. For the page that gets redirected to, I've swapped in a simple page for testing that reads the session variables and displays their values.

right now i have a script that will add to the DOM tree of a form... adding the hidden input values as children... it works well except when i click "BACK", Firefox doesn't remove those objects... (IE 7 and Safari 3 both removed them). So Firefox will actually submit more objects that there really are. so Firefox (2.0.0.8) is the only one causing trouble... is there a way to "force" refresh of the page or reload it? if i refresh...

Hi I have a page (default.aspx) that pulls it's HTML from a database. I then have a "content management" page (editpage.aspx) that allows the user to edit the HTML in the database. When the user clicks the save button on editpage.aspx, the page updates the database and then redirects to the default.aspx page.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
