i set things up so that if a user adds an item to their cart, and if they decide to go back to the previous product page, the page is not cached so it is forcibly reloaded from the server. i did this because i have quantity form fields next to each product. i wanted the page to reload if the user hit the back button so that these fields would be cleared out. i have several product pages with links to other pages and of course back to the home page. what i'm worried about is whether or not this will turn search engine spiders away and hurt my ranking. does anyone know if this affects the spiders? if so, any suggestions on a safer method of clearing the fields? thanks guys...
 
SE spiders don't have a back button and don't submit forms so it should make no difference at all.
