Clear A Form When 'Back' Buton Is Hit

[admgolfer]

I have a quick jump dropdown menu that automatically goes to a page when you drop down and select something. If the user hits the back button, their selection is still selected. Is there a way to refresh the dropdown menu so that the original selection shows when you hit the back button?

Further Explination: Right now, my dropdown menu says Quick Jump as it's default selection... If I select Contact Us, and then hit the back button, Contact Us still appears in the dropdown menu... I want Quick Jump to appear in the dropdown menu when the back button is hit - is this possible?

I have tried entering 'SELECTED' in the option tag, and it works only for when I come in from another page, not when I go back via the back button.

Thanks for your help! :)

Try adding something like this to your page:

<script type="text/javascript">
function setBack() {
document.your_form_name.your_select_name.options.selectedIndex = 0;
}
window.onload = setBack;
</script>And don't forget to change the items in bold...

you can try few things
like meta tag no caching and
window.location.reload(true),but this is totally dependant on how your browser caches webpage data
