[Zope] Reportlab issue

Hi Zope List,
I have an Zope application that uses ReportLab to generate acrobat
viewable reports. (I already posted this to reportlab list - so far no
solutions).
Heres the problem:
I display an acrobat report (using Firefox or IE 6) and say scroll down
to page 10. I then use the <browser> back button to re-enter my Zope
application.
Now, even if I click various unrelated pages in the application
(clearing the request,etc) and then return to the Report (which is
always freshly generated) it will try to re-display at page 10 - instead
of top of page.
This occurs even if the data being reported has changed, and this occurs
even if a different report is generated!
Note: that I use
import tempfile and
tmpFile2 = tempfile.mktemp()
to keep pdfPath's unique ...
I've tried combinations of "Content-Disposition" params like changing
filename=, etc. Nothing is changing this behavior.
I've tried (a reportlab mailing list suggestion) varying to <forms
action= like
<form name="printform" method="post" action="extensions/pyBudgetReports"
tal:attributes="action python:
'extensions/pyBudgetReports/?random=' + context.python.pyTime()">
No help either.
Anyone seen this?

I'm using ReportLab 1.20, Zope 2.78 and an external python script +
ReportLab to generate the PDFs. The Server is Linux Ubuntu 5.10.
