Disabling the back action???

[Cem Louis]

Hi,

In my site I made a db control with php for users not to go back. But
a user told me that it doesn't work this with opera browsers. So how
can I disable go back action that can be occured by keyboard and
mouse??? How can I do this with javascript???

Thank you,
Cem Louis

You can't, it's impossible, you need to know which keycode is bound to
the back button, and seen as that could be all sorts of things
(specific keys on keyboards, extra buttons on mice etc. etc.) you
can't stop them doing it.

You've got to design your app to cope with it - this is all answered
in the FAQ of course.

No, you just think you did.

Thats the way it should be. Don't try to destroy the functionality of my
browser. In the end, you will always fail.

So how can I disable go back action that can be occured by
keyboard and mouse???

You can't. Redesign your app so that it handles me going back and forth.

How can I do this with javascript???

Again, you can't.

Thank you,

You are welcome.
