Hi friend,
Technically cannot disable the Back button on someone's browser,
however,you can make it so that the button isn't available or continues to load the same page.
You get the effect but setting the open window code to a function.
After the function runs, you set a self.close() command to close up the parent window.
The code and the text link that fires the code looks like this:
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
function winNew() {
//***Get what is below onto one line***
window.open("backbuttonnewpage.html",'TheNewpop','toolbar=1,
location=1,directories=1,status=1,menubar=1,
scrollbars=1,resizable=1');
//***Get what is above onto one line***
self.close()
}
</SCRIPT>
<A HREF="javascript:goNewWin()">Click to go to a new page</A>
if you want the main window closed when it received the self.close() command. That pretty much kills the effect.
If you'd like the effect to occur without your user clicking a button, set the function "winNew()"
in the BODY tag and trigger with an onLoad Event Handler.
<BODY onLoad="goNewWin()">
Thanks
