FLASH: back button in browser - oops

[bob jones]

This may help...from the people at www.irt.org

(greatest resource on the web IMHO)

***********

Q921 When using a simple redirect script for

javascript enabled browsers, how can I stop the

browser redirecting when the user presses the back

button to back out of my site? 


Don't create the looping feature in the first place.

Instead of doing: 


<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"><!--

location.href = 'nextpage.htm';

//--></SCRIPT>

<NOSCRIPT>

YOur browser does not support JavaScript, or

JavaScript is disabled.

</NOSCRIPT>


 


Use: 


<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"><!--

if (document.images)

   

location.href.replace('http://www.somewhere.com/nextpage.htm');

else

    location.href = 'nextpage.htm';

//--></SCRIPT>

<NOSCRIPT>

Your browser does not support JavaScript, or

JavaScript is disabled.

</NOSCRIPT>

Of course this does not work for IE3 but send those

users a message to upgrade to a proper browser!

Alternatively Search irt.org and find further options.
