Rails - Feb 2006 - Back returns "Warning: Page has Expired" ?!?!

Hey,

I''ve found that certain browsers (IE and Ffx in particular) display a 
warning page whenever the user clicks on the ''back'' button
after having
just come from a page generated by a post. This makes perfect sense, it 
warns users about duplicate rows being entered etc.

However! Is there anyway to gracefully redirect the user to a
''safe''
page say

  -- redirect_to :controller => ''main'', :action =>
''index''

since it really looks a bit weird when the user is happily browsing 
along and suddenly gets (what he will think is) a error message warning 
him about something!

Thanks a lot!

gustav
