Hi..
I am developing a web application using ASP.NET. But I am getting the following message:
To display this page, Firefox must send information that will repeat any action (such as a search or order confirmation) that was performed earlier.

How to avoid this message??

quoted text "It means that the previous page you're trying to go back was technically a request for the website to do something. Could be like posting on a forum or ordering a product in a store. That's why you're asked for the confirmation about resending, to make sure you won't end up in unwanted situations. You know if you were browsing some random website of no importance, go ahead resend or if you're in middle of some business transaction, you probably don't want to resend. So it's important you're given the choice."

So, your code is causing a refetch or repost of some sort.

You need to check your code. DEBUG it and see it. Resolve it as per you need.

Hi Akansha,
Use
Responce.Redirect("yourPagename.aspx",False);
This will resolve your issue.
It's responce in boolean.

And also remove all Server.Transfer("pagename.aspx") if not required.

Hi Akansha,
You can use Post / Redirect/ Get Pattern in order to prevent this message.
That means after each "Post" statement, you must redirect to another page.
Or you can redirect to same page by using Response.Redirect(" PageName.aspx " , false );
