need code to refresh a pull down menu when the IE back button is used.

[thanks for the help mate]

I have a pull down menu the is used to be forwarded to a new page, when you
click the 'back' button to return to the last page to select a new
selection, it shows the last view with the selected date you made. how can
I get it to reset to the first selection.

I know I should use a 'return' link on the new pages to come back to the
last page. but really want it to reset as most would use the 'back' button
anyway.

thank you

Jason

I don't think you can tie anything to the use of the browser's back button.

Hi,
you could stick a bit of script on the page after the dropdown -
<script type="text/javascript">
document.YourForm.YourListBox.options.selectedIndex=0;
</script>
This will reset it to the first choice

That's a good idea. That just resets it every time the page is loaded.

as they say, it was staring me in the face.

cheers.
