how to correctly setup page caching for Nitrogen pages?

[Roman Shestakov]

hello,

I am trying to cache some dynamincally generated with Nitrogen pages so I could come back to them with back button.

What is the best way to do this?

Hi Roman,

I don't have a great answer for you here, as there's no real built-in
mechanism for accomplishing this.

The way I've done something *like* this in the past is to use location
rewriting mechanism in the modern browsers (or fallback to the
hashbang URLs for IE). I've used
https://github.com/balupton/History.js/ with some success in the past
for accomplishing this.

Otherwise, you're kind of on your own there to come up with your own
mechanism. Perhaps storing some kind of extended state information in
the session.

Hi Jesse,

thanks for suggestion to use History.js - this is indeed the most widely used lib to work with History API

I put together a detailed example here:

hopefully, this will be useful for somebody
