javascript back and refresh

[yuli1104]

Hello everyone,
can somebody help with how to back to the previous page and refresh ?
currently I used window.history.back(1);
window.history.go(0);
but it doesn't work.
please note, I can't use document.location.href because the previous page is a dynamic url.
I can't set the previous asp page to be noCache because in some situation I need to cache the previous page. i.e, the scenario is a payment, when succussfully paid, the "back" button will do "back + refresh" so the client can see a refreshed account balance (That is what I am asking help for). if the payment is not successful, the "back" button will be a pure back button and keep all the existing user input. (that is why I need the cache)

Thanks

Yuli

window.history.go(-1);

Thank you bclt. but that window.history.go(-1); is equal to window.history.back(1);
It is just back with no refresh.

Disable the cache on the previous page, and create your own cache using cookies.

Maybe this:

window.history.go(-1);
var sURL = unescape(window.location.pathname);
window.location.href = sURL;


// if even the page is cached this will force refresh ?
// Not tested
