but "the previous screen" is ONLY going to be the previous screen as it was 
viewed
by the user and served from the users cache.  If the real dataset changes, and
depending on the application it probably will, the user will not get the 
expected
results.

in a web application back buttons are BAD...period.  Users need to be trained 
for
this, mine are.
