Back Button 'skips' previous page

[umr]

When working on web page to view employee data, I enter
the SSN of the employee, the page brings up a list of that
employees info to view, I choose one of the options, it
gets displayed properly, but when I hit the 'back' button,
it skips over the info page and goes right back to the
first screen, forcing me to start over. Others use the
same page and the back button brings them back to the
correct page, not to the beginning page. Is there a
setting in IE that controls this? The pages do have secure
data. Thanks for any help!

It's possible that the page you're trying to go back to has some JavaScript
code which sends you back to the start if you did not arrive from the page
it expected. Have a look in the source code for the History.Go(-1) command.

Other employees might have JavaScript disabled under Tools -> Internet
Options -> Security -> Internet* -> Custom Level -> Active Scripting.

* If the Webpage is local, you might need to select "Local intranet" instead
of the "Internet" zone.
