http://wannafork.com/password.php

there's source code on the page (if posting it here would be better, let me know)

basically, when i hit "generate password" in FF, it continually generates a new password, but in IE (at least 8 w/ and w/o comp. mode on) it generates once, and then keeps that password...

and ideas? am i calling something wrong?

please help!!

My guess would be that IE is caching. Hopefully, you can just add a random URL variable with your request, like a timestamp, and that will fix it.

makes sense... i'll try that in a bit...

can anyone confirm that it's doing the same on IE 6 or 7? (new laptop, no virtual machines loaded yet...)

Thanks...

It was the same for me in IE8.

I'm stepping outside my knowledge area here but is this where the expires header might be helpful?

I will get around to learning about headers other than location one day honest.
