hi,

In my ASP.NET application, i have an login page. After user login, he can go to whatever page he wants.

I'm using MASTER PAGE for each and every page except LoginPage.

My problem is after user Logout Click(which was in my MasterPage). I make him to redirect as...

Response.Redirect("~/login.aspx", true);

Its works fine...But while user clicks back button, my IE(default) browser take user to Previous page.

Hence i used an script like...

XML

<script type="text/javascript">
window.history.forward(1);
</script>

Its works good when i have it in an single(Content) page....but user may logout where ever he wants. So, i need to call this script on each Page.Hence i place it in my MASTERPAGE.

Unfortunately its not work .... So, am i need to place this script in each(all content) page???
Is this the Correct way??

Please direct me...

This isn't the right approach for obvious reasons. The correct way is to disable caching of your web page.
You can use these META tags inside your HEAD element.

HTML

<meta http-equiv="Expires" CONTENT="0">
<meta http-equiv="Cache-Control" CONTENT="no-cache">
<meta http-equiv="Pragma" CONTENT="no-cache">

Or you can do it through your code-behind like this:

C#

Response.Cache.SetCacheability(HttpCacheability.NoCache);
Response.Cache.SetExpires(DateTime.Now);
Response.Cache.SetAllowResponseInBrowserHistory(false);

As far as the browser is concerned, there is nothing called a master page. The ASP.NET runtime merges the master page and content page markup and produces the final HTML output that the browser sees. So it can be used it master pages. You should put all your META tags inside the HEAD tag.
