    I want to stop the page loading from server when user moves back and forward on their computer on my site.

    more specifically i want to show them browser cache rather then showing newly loaded copy of the page from the server on back and forward event

    how can i do that ...

    something to do with meta tags ...?

    Yes, you can send an HTTP header like "Last-Modified" to tell browsers when the page was last modified so they can cache it.

    <meta http-equiv="Last-Modified" content="Thu, 03 May 2007 13:25:27 GMT">
