If you click the browser back button then ultimately page cycle runs again. So if you didn't maintain the view state or session value then it will delete all previous value for sure.

Hi,

If you click the back button,in that button you can write if(ISPostback) in that loop you can write the retrieving code by using querystring or any other cookies.
If is post back means the page will be post backed once but the button contains previous page data.

Or

You can use ajax controls,it is partially postbacked the page,your content cannot be destroyed,only changed content can be updated.

Its a Browser behavior. You can re-fill the page by using viewstate or session state. Or you can prevent the back button usage.

No it is not browser behavior. This is how ASP.NET works. Once the page has been served it is forgotten. ViewState is valid for postbacks not for initial page loads which is what a back button refresh would register as.

Hi friend,
i think it is better to store the state of the page in session, when you go back restore the session to its original state.

It doesn't work that way. Remember, the web is stateless, when you navigate to a page the browser doesn't know if its the first time or 14th time you have visited the page. ASP.NET handles postbacks by setting the viewstate but once you navigate away from the page then viewstate for that page is destroyed. Clicking the back button is like visiting the page for the first time again.
