This is my first time posting to this list. Hope that I am following 
procedure.

  My department is trying to run a program that will allow users to 
access sensitive data. We have the security/password part down, but 
most of the accesses will come fromunsecure lab room machines. DOes 
anyone know of a way, an HTML tag, a meta tag, or something that will 
instruct our university's Netscape 2.0 or better browsers not to cache 
the resulting files, so that if a user walks away from a machine 
someone else cannot come along and use the "back" button to view their 
information?

Thank you in advance,
D'aryl Hawes
