and the problem is this should have prevent the cache in the browser through header() function but after loading the page the back button is taking me to the previous page and the forward button of the browser is taking me to the next page can any one help how to prevent this browser cache or why is my code here is not working?
header("Pragma: no-cache"); // HTTP 1.0.
Back/forward cache (or bfcache) is a browser optimization that enables instant back and forward navigation.
Thanks guys for helping me out but i found a way that force the browser to prevent cache and i have used the below code :
header("Cache-Control: no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate"); // HTTP 1.1.
header("Pragma: no-cache"); // HTTP 1.0.
header("Expires: 0 "); // Proxies.
here is the reference : Making sure a web page is not cached, across all browsers and its working pretty good.
