I have a web application that uses the Wicket framework. It has a form that takes user input and when submitted, redirects to another page. Once the form is submitted and the browser's back button is clicked, the previous form is retrieved from the cache with the values entered. I need to override this behavior and redirect to the latter page (keep staying on the same page) when the browser back button is pressed. Is this possible in Wicket? If so, please guide me on how to achieve this. Thank you.
Wicket handles URLs so if a previous page is requested by it's recognized by page ID that is by default added to the URL, e.g. http:/dummyexample.com?1
What I use to solve that problem is a flow engine that holds the state of model object within it. E.g. you have a model object of type MyFlow containing a field 'String currentState'. In this case if you required a wrong page, that is not belong the stage where your flow is, you can redirect to the relevant page from a controcutor or onIntialize() throwing 'RestartResponseException' that causes redirect to the new page.
