Question

I am having a strange problem. Here is the scenario

Here are my files:

1. Project1.aspx
2. Project2.aspx

They are set up the exact same, including their Page_Load functions:

Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles Me.Load

If (Not Page.IsPostBack) Then

   setPrevIndex(-1)

   ...

   End If


End Sub

They are both set up this way.

Here is where I am running into a problem. When I navigate to either of these pages, i need to make sure that prevIndex is set to -1 (via the function).

• For Project1.aspx when I navigate
  to the page, the Page_Load fires.
• For Project1.aspx when I refresh the page, the Page_Load fires.
• For Project1.aspx when I press “Go” in my browsers navigation bar, traveling back to the current page, the Page_Load fires.

• For Project2.aspx when I navigate
  to the page, the Page_Load fires.
• For Project2.aspx when I refresh
  the page, the Page_Load fires.
• For Project2.aspx when I press
  “Go” in my browsers navigation bar,
  traveling back to the current page,
  the Page_Load doesn’t fire at all! The function isn’t even
  called.

Any ideas why??? What would cause this?

Please ask for clarification.

Update:

When I press “Go” in the URL pointing to the same URL, it seems like the masterpage is the only thing that re-loads, but the Load_Page event doesn’t even fire…

Any other suggestions?

Thanks,
E

Try disabling output cache and see if the problem still occurs:

<system.web>
  <caching>
    <outputCache enableOutputCache="false"/>
  </caching>
