FW: [PHP] Disabling Browser "BACK" button

You are correct Chris. However if you designed your application as the generic Master-Detail-(write changes) structure you would merely have to use echo "<body onload=\"javascript:history.go(-2)\">"; to take you back to the master set, assuming js is turned on, and that is the flow of your app. I mainly design in an intranet environment, and variables are more controlled here than in other places. For instance, I'm sure that noone uses anything but IE, and JS is almost for sure on.

Unless, of course, they hit the "Submit" button again and I think that was the point the original poster was getting at. If the user cannot hit the back button, they cannot hit submit again. Chris
