Instead of using history.back(); which just reloads the last set of
information the browser received, try using:

document.location="the URL for your page";

This will have the same effect as the user going back but will show the form
with empty input boxes as the user "hasn't been to this page before" (if you
see what I mean.

Hope this helps,
