no_cache
========
 
This was extracted from a problem we had while building
a RESTful wizard without breaking the back button
 
http://giantrobots.thoughtbot.com/2008/4/25/pitfalls-in-restful-wizards
 
The no_cache plugin will force the browser to fetch a page
every time, including on clicks to the 'back' and 'forward'
buttons.
 
USAGE
=====
 
class PurchasesController < ApplicationController
  no_cache [:new, :edit]
end
 
class TeamsController < ApplicationController
  no_cache [:new]
end
 
# app/views/purchases/new, 
# app/views/purchases/edit, and 
# app/views/teams/new
 
<%= hidden_iframe %>
