we have figured out a way to disable the history using windows on both Ie and Netscape but when we view the test page on the Mac this does not work<br><br>does anyone know how to achieve this or where i could read up on this?<br><br>Thank you<br>
 
Hi !<br>I don't have an answer for you, sorry.<br>Instead, can you help me ?<br>I need to disable history for Netscape. <br>I've used the server side script(in VBScript)and wrote &lt;%Response.Expires=0%&gt;. <br>In IE this is enough for not using a cached page, but reloading it from fresh.<br>Also in NetScape, on some servers it works, and on some it doesn't.<br>So, I thought maybe JavaScript in the client side would help me convince NetScape not to cash the pages.<br><br>Can your experience help me?<br>Yours Yael
 
Hi<br>we could not find the actual workaround but the following was acceptable in our case: <br>You can add code to the previous page to force the browser to go forwards again: <br><br>&lt;script language=&quot;JavaScript&quot;&gt;&lt;!--<br>javascript:window.history.forward(1);<br>//--&gt;&lt;/script&gt;<br>
