Appending the number of a temporary directory to the locations of pages in the history array could help me to stop new temporary directories being created by a Perl script when users use the back button.
Can query strings be added to those history locations, or are those locations un-alterable?
Thanks for your clues.
 
You cannot modify the history (it is read-only). You can choose to replace the current page with a new one in the history (location.replace), but that's about it.

Hope this helps,

Thanks, Dan, and that helps.
I'll ask them politely to stop using the back button.
