Resetting variables when loading a cached page

Question

I have a page which sets the a value of a js variable for customer authentication to false inside "jQuery(document).ready(function()" when it is loaded for the first time.

but after customer authenticates himself and then comes back to that same page, that page is loaded from cache and the value still remains as it is

So is there a way by which i can force that variable to reset itself ??

Are you redirecting the user to that page after authentication? Redirection should not refill the data from cache. — Ankit Jaiswal

I have a link on d page which redirects to home page when authenticated or opens a login page dialog when unauthenticated — Vipin

can check when the page becomes visible using-

$('#mypage').live('pageshow', function (event) {
          //Reset the vars here.. 
        });

OR

shorter way is

window.onpageshow = function(event) {
    //event.persisted)
    //Reset the vars here.. 

};
