New Back-arrow &$&%#* disabling -
Other than manual selection of previous, from history file - is there any neat trick for evading this idiocy (aside from e-mailing the mouth-breather admin, to no effect) ?


A.
New Disable javascript
Unless there's another way to do it with IE, you need javascript to "disable" the back button. Really what you're doing is replacing the previous element in the history list with the current page. So "history.go(-1)" takes you "back" to where you already are. Actually, I believe there's a few other tricks to do it with javascript, but that's usually how I see it.

The annoying thing is that the ability is there for a very real need. If you're doing a redirect, you need to purge the redirect page from the history so you don't get in a back-and-forth loop.
