I noticed that when I force a browser back and the resulting page contains a
querystring, it fires the Page_Load event. But if the resulting page
doesn't contain a querystring, no Page_Load fires. Is this as expected? I
use the following code to create the brower back:

ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(this.GetType(), "goBack", "<script
type='text/javascript'
language='javascript'>window.history.go(-2);</script>");

Your browser is just getting the old version from the cache. If there are
no params on the url it is assuming the page content won't be dynamic. Not
100% true, but that's how it works.
