Browser Cache

Browser caching does not retain the state of a Web View application since the application is dynamically updated while it is running. When the user attempts to leave the application, a warning message will be displayed to inform them that the application will be restarted when they return. They may choose whether they wish to stay in the application or not. This will happen regardless of how the user leaves the application including using the browser Back and Forward buttons.

This feature may be turned off by changing the notifyOnUnload setting in the configuration.js for the skin. This file is located in the gen\skins\xp directory in the default Web View skin.
