when i click on logout link on jsp page, it shows to the login page (jsp).But when i click the browser back button it shows me the page which i have last visited ( having the logout link, say for eg in this case.) How can i avoid this type of situation?

solution with sample code snippets is well appreciated.

The browser history has nothing to do with sessions, so cannot be affected by server side jsp code.

and, No there is no way to remove the entry from the browser history cache

Use following meta tags in html of your pages..

<META HTTP-EQUIV="CACHE-CONTROL" CONTENT="NO-CACHE">
<META HTTP-EQUIV="EXPIRES" CONTENT="0">
