Keep values in the search form after clicking back from results

[jbenito]

I use indico to book rooms at cern , page title: "Search for a room"
URL:  http://indico.cern.ch/roomBooking.py/search4Rooms?forNewBooking=True

I have to fill several fields (Availability, Capacity, and so on...)

Most of the times my search is not succesfull, so I'd like to go back
and modify just one of the fields.
What happens is that there is no cashing mechanism and all fields are
reset to their default value.
so I have to fill them all again.

This is seriously annoying; can you improve it ?

Are you sure this is our problem? if you click "back" instead of "search room" again, the values will still be there...
If I open google, look for "whatever", get the results and then click the google icon again, I won't get any cached values...

If you click "back" in the browser you have got the same value in the form (in google or whatever). This is not because google keeps the values, but the browser does. I created this ticket because I think we do not allow the browser to keep the values, because we use JS components....I dont know if we will be able to do something to pass the responsibility to the browser...but...we may have a look 30 mins at it, nop?

This will be solved with #1004
