Inspired by Brian I toke a step back and looked at what exactly is causing my problem.

There may not be an answer to this question but there is a solution that partially solves problem. By using session cookies the modified content will only exist for that particular session so next time the original content becomes accessible again. This doesn't change the fact that re-enterying the url in the addressbar will still result in the page using the cookie.

Thank you all for trying to help.
