But any attempt to "disable" the back button goes against the grain of the design of the web, and won't work on at least some browsers. Hence, the responses here are an attempt to take a few steps backward in the problem solving process, to see how we got painted into a corner here trying to do something that isn't possible. On #perl, we call this an "xy problem", where a person asks how to do "y" hoping it will help them solve a part of "x", when in fact we need to ask what "x" is because "y" is almost always the wrong partial solution. This is a valid exchange of questions. -- Randal L.
