Atomatically Refreshing a dynamic webpage

Hi all,
I have a problem with maintaining data without refreshing manually in
my system. I have a system which carries data across several pages.
But if a user wants to go back to the previous pages, he is asked to
refresh at each stage, which is inconvenience. I want to be able to
maintain the data without refreshing when a user presses a back
button.

Thanking you in anticipation.

You'll need to use GET instead of POST on your forms

Thank you but I have more than 20 forms with $_POST and it will be
time consuming and I have a tight deadline. Is there another way?

Nope. Just send the data with POST (this is required for large form
data), then let the processing script return a 'Location' header with
the absolute URI of the current page. The browser will then fetch the
same page again with a normal GET request. This will prevent the ugly
"page expired" warning in the browser when going back in its history.

Also, this is not a PHP issue. You should be asking this in alt.html.
