Here is another example from the ISBN Application Proces:
http://www.isbn.org/standards/home/isbn/us/application.asp
Important! Please be sure that your web browser cache is turned
on before you begin this application process. Otherwise you may
lose all your data on the form when the browser's back button is
clicked on for any reason. (Keep in mind that you shouldn't have to
use your browser's back button at all during this application process.
Whenever you miss a required field, the web application will inform
you of your omission and it will reshow your partially completed
form so that the change can be made without clicking on the back
button.)
