I’m working on a site that’s basically a test for users to take that automatically pulls up 3 questions at a time from a database, and the user inputs yes or no for each one, and clicks continue. That inserts their answers into the database, then reloads that page which brings up the next 3 unanswered questions from the database. Everything’s working dandy in IE, Chrome, and Safari, but I’m having some issues in Firefox. As I go through testing it in Firefox, if I answer too quickly and hit “Submit” again only a couple seconds after the last time I submitted my answers, Firefox retardedly just reloads a cached version of the page with the same three questions I just answered (it still submits and inserts my answers into the database, though). If I wait a couple seconds and refresh, then it goes to the correct new questions. Due to my validation system, if I try re-answering those same questions after it reloads the cached version, I get validation errors and I’m stuck until I refresh it successfully. That scenario would suck if a user ran into it. Does that make sense? Anyone know a way to make Firefox be less dumb? And I don’t mean changing my own cache settings, I want this to work for all users. It probably won’t actually be a problem in practice, because nobody’s going to answer the questions fast enough to cause the issue (if I let the page sit at least ~4 seconds before submitting, it works fine), but it’s still really annoying me. (Sorry if this is in the wrong place, I’m not really sure where it belongs.)
