title: Why Internet Explorer differs from the expected functionality on a back button
body: <p>In my ASP.NET MVC project, we have introduced Lucine Searching, (Though in this context these details are not required, just giving some background, because I believe my issue has something to do with IE browser and caching).</p>
  
  <p>In this page the user can filter their search based on a keyword. And the user can click to go to the listed out items and come back to the same page with the browser back button or a manual HTML button which has the javascript code,  <code>onclick = "location.href = 'Javascript:history.go(-1);'"</code> ).</p>
  
  <p>In Chrome, Firefox and even in Internet explorer 9, user gets back the page where he left off without any issues. I meant it keeps the value the user entered.</p>
  
  <p>However both in IE 10 and IE 11 when the user clicks on the filtered list item it goes into the page and when user clicks either on the browser back button or HTML back button first time I get back the correct filtered page. However when the user again clicks on any of the item, and do the same procedure, I will not get back the filtered value. Instead with all the results, even the text box will not have the keyword entered by the user.</p>
  
  <p>It is always assumes that the back button is there to help the people get back the same page and state where they left. I left with out any clue why IE 10 and 11 acts differently. Could any of you please help me to figure out what I am missing here. </p>
