Normally the browser should ask "resubmit posted data?" or some similar thing on reload. If you answer yes, then _POST will not be cleared.

which browser are you using? There are so many "bad" behavoirs out there for reload,refresh,forward,back that its next to impossible to predict what should happen.
"Correct" forward/back should never generate any network traffic, ie it should be only the local cached copy, but Netscape messes this one up.
Reload/Refresh should always ask before resending, but many default not to unless you mess if the settings/properties.... But I would think that resending is more correct than not, in the absense of the question....

ie 5
but the point is that if it doesnt work for me then it definately wont work for part of my audience(of which i hope there will be many)
so browser version shouldnt (or rather, cant) matter
sometimes it asks resend info.... if you dont it comes up page expired, if you do.... well whats the point in that?
ctrl f5 makes no difference either
