how to disable the back button on the browser
Hello Experts,
I am trying to develop online test tool in ASP.NET, I have used Ajax lookup to get the questions and 4 multiple answers for it. It seems to be working fine. However, the problem is, I can use the back button on the browser navigate to the previously answered question and change or view the answer. I would like to completely disable the back button on the browser as long as they are with in the test application(pages).
Please can someone advise if there is any trick/logic to do this?
Thanks for your help.
Regards
Kay

Why in the world would you want to do this?

Of course it is impossible. It is the reasoning I'm after.
Just another control freak who thinks he can coerce the Poor User into following his way of thinking. Fraught with peril. Pointless, too.
But the young will have their say, eh?

Dear WesleySaysHi,
i would like to know your method of two iframes:
<FRAMESET COLS="100%,*">
<FRAME SRC="goback.html">
<FRAME SRC="fillerpage.html">
</FRAMESET>
The page "goback.html" contains only the code:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" CONTENT=".0; URL=nobackpage.html">
What is the fillerpage.html?, is it the page where we put our conents?
Under goback.html page can we point the nobackage.html to our start page?
Or do we need to creat a blank "nobackpage.html" page?
by my understanding there will be 4 pages:
1. index.html (having frameset)
2. goback.html
3. nobackpage.html
4. fillerpage.html (content page for the iframe)
Yes this comments is on very old post, but if you can reply, will help me alot.
Thanks all.
