Is there any way to get around the Microsoft confirm box to "Retry" or "Cancel" when refreshing a page? I'm trying to disable the browser's Back button by running the following script in the head of every page:


<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=&quot;JavaScript&quot;>
javascript:window.history.forward(1);
</SCRIPT>

It's working on all my pages except the ones that get that Microsoft message when refreshing. Any suggestions??

Thanks,
hacole
 
-> about diabling the back button, you can go to the jscript forum, and use the search function with &quot;disabl back button&quot; you'll get a lot of results !!!! - anyway the only proper and efficient way to do so is setting it SERVER SIDE - in your web server
-> about the message, unless you make your clients download a small piece of code to modify their registry settings (which i bet more than half the clients will refuse - i personnaly do), you can't do anything .... it's a security setting of the CLIENT browser - as a client would you allow anyone to modify your settings ???
 
That's what I was afraid of.... thanks for your input and time.
