For ianlesoft:<br />
I am not sure how to ue the expire command<br />
for CJ S:<br />
that would work fine except that the Input box is initially populated with a value obtained from a SELECT box on another ASP page<br />
&lt;INPUT ID=&quot;NameAfterChange&quot; NAME=&quot;selectedName&quot; VALUE=&quot;&lt;%Response.Write(Re<wbr />quest.Form<wbr />(&quot;selected<wbr />Name&quot;))%&gt;&quot;<wbr />&gt;<br />
and if I use your code, the initial value is also cleared. &nbsp;I only want the box to be cleared when I return to it, not when I initialy go to it.<br />

window.history.back(-1) question
