Having A Lightbox Pop Up When A User Clicks The Back Button In Their Browser Rather Than Just Navigating Back
Jul 1, 2011I'm looking to have a lightbox pop up when a user clicks the Back button in their browser rather than just navigating back. The purpose is to ask a question with a Yes/No answer, and if they click No, I allow them to go back. The only thing I've found anything like this is the onUnload event, but that doesn't prevent them from going back. How should this be handled?

Feb 24, 2004I am trying to write a script that uses the IF statement to see wether or not a user clicked the back button to come to a page, and then if it's true to not let the page load and kick them back X number of pages (say 4) This is what I have so far:
<script language="JavaScript"><!--
if javascript:window.history.back == 1
{
javascript:window.history.back(4);
return false;

Back (history.back()) After Refresh
May 29, 2006I have a webpage popup (lets call it POPUP) which refreshes the opener window (this one we call PARENT) when we close it, saying we want to save data. For this, we use
top.oWndOpener.refresh();
When we don't want to save the POPUP data, we just close the popup and
don't refresh the PARENT. In the PARENT we have a "Back" link which executes a simple
history.back()
The problem is:
If we refresh parent, we need to go back 2 pages, because the refresh
method adds another page to the history. But we have no (easy) way of
knowing in the PARENT if it had been refreshed. With this, our users
are forced to click two times in the Back link.
Is there anyway of going back to the previous page, no matter how many
refreshes happened in the current one ?
JS Call To PHP To XML File Back To PHP And Then Back To JS?
Mar 16, 2010I have been trying to utilize a pre existing snippet of JS that makes a call to some PHP, where the PHP echo's out the answer, namely a dynamic quick search output, that gains its data from an xml file (which works as expected) and thought I might be able to rework the code to work for my altered purpose (which has been a disaster at every attempt) which is as follows:
1. I have a JS file called call4section.js - JS that has a string (str) value assigned (could be number or a combination of numbers and letters) which is passed to a PHP script called call4section.php.
2. The PHP script takes receipt of the string and finds a match within an XML file for the entry under <reference>.
3. The XML file has a format as follows:
<pages>
<note>
<section>value</section>
[code]....
And well, I dont seem to be able to get any further forward with it. Effectively, I can echo out the $reply (if it worked I think), but my stumbling block is sending the starting string, with the JS expecting some reply sent from the PHP.

View 1 Replies View RelatedBack - Forward Browser Button For Iframe - Bring Back/forward Iframe Or Top Window?
Jan 24, 2011I am wondering how Back, Forward browser button works for iframes. Does it bring back/forward iframe or top window? I remember I had before a problem because I wanted to bring back iframe and not top window as it did. But today I tested my Facebook app and was surprised to see it works as I need which means it brings back/forward iframe window and not top. Is it possible that Facebook has some javascript code which does that or is this normall behaviour?

Mar 22, 2011I can use the following code to create an HTML table based on an XML document. However, I would like to pass the onreadystatechange event a callback function (with arguments) to process the XML document. This way I can effectively remove the processing of the document from the event handler.Alternatively, is there a way the event handler can return a reference to the document, so that I can then parse it externally to the event handler?
Code:

View 8 Replies View RelatedUsing History.back()
Aug 3, 2007I have a form with a "Print" button on the page. When the user clicks this it doesn't actually print but opens a condensed version of the page, passing the field contents with php. On the new (condensed) page I capture the load of the page in js and when it occurs issue the command print(). This works fine.
But once I've done this (printed) I would like to return to my original form. I've tried
if (print()) history.back()
print()
history.back()
neither seems to work. As an experiment I put the following code at the bottom of my condensed page that prints...
<FORM>
<INPUT type="button" value="Click here to go back" onClick="history.back()">
</FORM>
Clicking on the resulting button does exactly what I want... clears the form and returns me to my original.
I just don't what to
a) print the form with that button on it
b) require user input after the printing.
So... can anyone point me in a way of making history.back() work outside of an onClick construct?

View 1 Replies View RelatedMaking A Back Button
Jul 20, 2005I have a graphic with a rollover for site navigation on each page. I
put the page to go back to in the rollover javascript.
My question is, is it possible to put in some code that will refer the
visitor back to whatever page they came from rather than one I
specify?
The rollover is combined with a tooltip script to make matters fun
(below). However, I'm quite happy to lose the tooltip to have the link
perform as a back button.
<a href="../index.asp"
onmouseover="document.images['link1'].src=img2.src;
showtip(this,event,'Back to home page');"
onmouseout="document.images['link1'].src=img1.src; hidetip()";><img
src="bhome.gif" name="link1" border=0></a>

Back() And Reload() At The Same Time?
Jul 20, 2005
By pressing a button I am directed from one page to another. At the second
page some things displayed on the first page are changed and now I want to
go back to the first page again. The pages are written in php.
If I use javascript:history.back() I get back to the first page but I have
to manually reload it to see the changes I have made.
The solution could be:
echo "<meta http-equiv="refresh"
content="0;url=firstpage.php?op=view&id=$id&...&...&....">";
But I have to do a lot of work to get all the options (e.g. op=view&...).
Is there anyway I can use javascript to go back to the first page and force
it to reload, so that I don't have to reload it my self?
Or is there some way I can read out what is in javascript:history.back() so
that I could place it in the above mentioned solution? It doesn't seem to
work if I just do the following:
echo "<meta http-equiv="refresh"
content="0;url=javascript:history.back()">";

Detecting When Back Has Been Pressed?
Aug 8, 2009I've written a script that displays tooltips when your mouse hovers over a link - all this is fine, but when I click on the link and move to another page, then click the back button on the browser to go back, the tooltip for the link I clicked is still visible! It'd be great if there was a way of detecting the button had been pressed so that I can hide it...
p.s. I tried onclick = "tooltips.hideToolTip(4); return true;" for the links but no joy...
Javascript History Go Back
Jan 11, 2007I'm attempting to use the javascript 'history.go(-1);' to make a page automatically return to the last page a user visited. At the moment, I can get this to work ONLY if I insert a link into the page.
What I want to happen is, the page autmatically sends the user back to the previous page after a set time. I have this for my JS:
function backtomusic() {
window.location = history.go(-1);
}
And in the body section of my page I have:
<body onLoad="setTimeout('backtomusic()', 3000)">
When it runs I get an error saying 'undefined' in the browser address bar
Any ideas?

Cookies - Reading Them Back
Apr 2, 2007document.cookie="yourdrive="+driveletter+"; expires="+"; path=/";

They end up looking like this in the cookie:
yourdrive E ~~local~~/ 1088 647360864 29848791 647360864 29848791 * maindrive C ~~local~~/ 1088 647360864 29848791 647360864 29848791 *
So they must be being set. I must have tried a dozen cookie reading routines and I can't read either of them back! Can anyone do it? I am sure it must be simple. But all I get is "false" all the time. Code:

History.back() Onclick With DOM
Sep 22, 2005Have a slideshow navigation and want to put a DOM onubtrusive JS that finds the <a> in <li id="nav-back">and executes history.back() with a onclick handler. No worry about JS disabled because then I use a other link that is hidden when JS is enabled ...
Some questions-ideas
What do i need to put in the <a href="??"> of <li id="nav-back"> ?
And the script I started see below, should it be written like that ??
History.back() works perfectly cross-browser in DOM capable browsers ??
This is the HTML
<div id="navwrap">
<ul id="nav">
<li id="nav-prev"><a href="#" title="go to previous image">previous</a></li>
<li id="nav-back"><a href="#" title="go to overview of images">back to overview</a></li>
<li id="nav-forward"><a href="#" title="go to next image">next</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
Is this how to do go about it
if (!document.getElementbyId) {return;}
var backButton = document.getElementbyId('nav-back').document.getElementBytagname('a')
backButton.onclick = history.back();
}
Is it possible to show in the title tag that last history entry ?
