Search results cache in browser

Encountered an issue with DA Search and Results pages. (This happened on another site some time ago, but I didn't pursue finding a solution as that site wasn't critical.)

Using DA to create Results, Insert, Delete, Update, and Search.

Example of use, problem: Use the search page to get a result of one or two records. All good.

Then use a link to the Results page for review, and the search parameters, ie, the one or two records from the search, are the only ones that show. Only solution is to close down the browser, restart or flip to another browser. Can duplicate in Safari and Firefox and Chrome (mac).

Any ideas on how to fix?

Thanks.

One temporary fix found: Do a new search and don't enter anything into any field. It clears out cache. But clients shouldn't have to do this step. There must be a fix somewhere. Any and all suggestions welcome. Thanks.

This because the search criteria are store in a session variable look for this code in your page

//save the query in a session variable
if (1 == 1) {
$_SESSION["WADbSearch1_*SESSION_NAME*"]=$WADbSearch1->whereClause;
}
}
else {
$WADbSearch1 = new FilterDef;
$WADbSearch1->initializeQueryBuilder("MYSQL","1");
//get the filter definition from a session variable
if (1 == 1) {
if (isset($_SESSION["WADbSearch1_*SESSION_NAME*"]) && $_SESSION["WADbSearch1_*SESSION_NAME*"] != "") {
$WADbSearch1->whereClause = $_SESSION["WADbSearch1_*SESSION_NAME*"];
}
else {
$WADbSearch1->whereClause = $WADbSearch1_DefaultWhere;
}
}
else {
$WADbSearch1->whereClause = $WADbSearch1_DefaultWhere;
}
}
$WADbSearch1->whereClause = str_replace("\\''", "''", $WADbSearch1->whereClause);
$WADbSearch1whereClause = '';



what is happening is that the code is checking for the presence of the session variable and the including the contents in the where clause of the recordset

What I do is include a check for the "search button" like so

//save the query in a session variable
if ((isset($_GET["WADbSearch1"])) && ($_GET["WADbSearch1"] != "")) {
$_SESSION["WADbSearch1_*SESSION_NAME*"]=$WADbSearch1->whereClause;
}
}
else {
$WADbSearch1 = new FilterDef;
$WADbSearch1->initializeQueryBuilder("MYSQL","1");
//get the filter definition from a session variable
if ((isset($_GET["WADbSearch1"])) && ($_GET["WADbSearch1"] != "")) { // button check
if (isset($_SESSION["WADbSearch1_tbl_*SESSION_NAME*"]) && $_SESSION["WADbSearch1_tbl_categories"] != "") {
$WADbSearch1->whereClause = $_SESSION["WADbSearch1_*SESSION_NAME*"];
}
else {
$WADbSearch1->whereClause = $WADbSearch1_DefaultWhere;
}
}
else {
$WADbSearch1->whereClause = $WADbSearch1_DefaultWhere;
}
}
$WADbSearch1->whereClause = str_replace("\\''", "''", $WADbSearch1->whereClause);
$WADbSearch1whereClause = '';



this ensures the search code is only processed if the search button is pressed, be warned though this mod will mean that the DA Search code will no longer appear in your server behaviours panel and you will have to remove it if you want to edit it.
