[Seaside] 2.5 sushi store shopping cart & back button

[Blanchard, Todd]

I was under the impression that correct browser behavior was to issue a new request for all expired pages in the cache when asked to redisplay them. (And it may well be but apparently isn't implemented that way).
 
Web development can be so "extra fun" sometimes. :-/

It's not page expiration, it's actually browser-specific back-button behaviour.  Since I generally use either Safari or Firefox when developing, I was surprised recently to see that IE6 behaviour was to actually send a new request on pressing the back button -- so, if Brent had been using IE6 he would have seen the correct value upon pressing 'Back'.  Since, I assume, he was using FF or Safari, no new request went out and he just saw the cached version of the page..

	This sort of implies that the page expiration date should probably have been set to some very low number 1 second if the page is going to contain volatile data like that - yes?

	You would have to reload - your browser was presumably showing you the cached version.
