What i'm doing is that i've got a sign-up form. Since the signup form can be accessed from many pages, i'm trying to use javascript to go back to the page the person comes form. so what i'm using is this:
PHP Code:
This works perfectly.. BUT.. in some browsers i have to press refresh to have the changes made.
E.g. index.php says "hello guest" after signing in some browsers say "hello user" some like ie5 say "hello guest" (if i refresh, then it says "hello user")
So is there anyway to goback to the previous page in history and not to use the cache?
does any one have any idea how to go back to a calling (previous page) from the present one you are in;
1. without clicking the 'back' button on the toolbar
2. and still retain the values that a user already filled in in the previous page you are returning to (i.e. - the user should not have to fill in the values afresh)
3. maybe using the on click event of a button, or any other method.
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"> if (confirm("Are you sure to delete?")) { self.location = 'delete.php' } else { history.go(-1); } </script>
The above code give an alert with two choices(confirm or cancel). If the user clicks the cancel button, it will go to previous page. If the user clicks the confirm button, it will go to delete.php.
I like to make it like the following. If the user clicks the cancel button, it will go to previous page. If the user clicks the confirm button, It will proceed reading the next code.(the next code contains the code for deleting.)
I tried to remove "the self.location = 'delete.php'" as a test.
Code: <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"> if (confirm("Are you sure to delete?")) {
} else { history.go(-1); } </script>
The above code do; If the user clicks the cancel button, it will go to previous page. If the user clicks the confirm button, it will proceed reading the next code. So the deleting will be done.
It seems work fine.
But if the user clicks the cancel button, It will go to prevous page and the deleting will be done.(it might proceed reading the next code)
I have many tags. I want click each tag, then post/get the tag's value to another page. In another page, received the values and make a mysql query. Then return the resalt data to the first page(do not make an iframe).
Is there a way to create an alert that would pop-u when the user clicked refresh?
On refresh:
"Warning: Refreshing this page will bring you back to the beginning of the application. Are you sure you want to refresh the page?"
Yes - No
On page forward or back:
"Warning: Using the forward/back buttons may cause unexpected problems. Please use the tabs to navigate from page to page. Are you sure you want to use the forward/back button?"
When I load my website www.bellmacchinaproductions.com, I see a slideshow featured category. When I click on the logo to go back to the main page, it is cut off. But when I refresh, it seems to work again...
That all works fine. The issue is when I use the back button on the browser to return to the home page the animation never triggers and the page remains unusable until a refresh. How can I have this page refresh when the user uses the back button and/or is there a better way to do what I'm asking?
I have a page that is dynamically build through DOM manipulation. So, when I browse outside the page, and then click back, those dynamically created DOM objects are gone. I can rebuild the page easily. So the point is that if the user leaves the dynamic page, then clicks back on their browser, I need the page they are going back to to refresh. I thought it might be something about caching, so I've tried to use all following 3 META tags but it doesn't work.
I 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 ?
I have create a spinnrer (numeric up and down field) in my form.Below is the code for it:
<form action="create_session.php" method="post" name="createsession"> <!-- This will post the form to its own page"--> <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">
I want users to work from a main application. Certain things will need to be done but the users wont want to see the main screen go away while doing these certain things. So my idea is to just open a new window with the content they need, they'll make their changes, the new window will close but then I want the main page to reload.What I've done now is at the end of the script that will be run prior to the new window closing is added this (its a php app):
I 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:
I need some script to force the browser to reload/refresh when a page is reached from the back button.
EG You're on page A -> You click a link onto page B -> You Press Browser back to go onto Page A, it has old content that requires a reload.
Now, my page is currently php so I won't bother with my code here as I am looking for any solution (I have also posted in php forum).
Any JS solution that will trigger a reload on browser back is appreciated. I have tried a few ideas, most work in Chrome, IE always works, Firefox 4 and Opera 11 wont reload, simply fetching from cache I believe.
I've got some popup windows with help screens in them. The screens are other pages of my site specially sized to fit. Those pages have links to other pages, so users can navigate them inside the popup.So I thought I'd do two things:
1. Put a back button in the popup to let the user go back one or more pages in the help screens. But a simple button saying history.back() or history.go(-1) just does nothing.
2. Let the user refresh the pop-up content so that the user can go back to the first page of the help screen without having to close the pop-up and reopen it from the main page.But a simple refresh button saying location.reload(true) or window.location.reload() also does nothing.There is a button in there that works OK, window.close().Am I missing something fundamental about the nature of popup windows?I don't really want to have my help screens open in new browser tabs because I know people won't bother to close them.
I have an iframe that contains x.asp:Code:<iframe name=chat width=90% height=50% frameborder=0 src=x.asp></iframe>x.asp is refreshed every 1 second using metatag. The problem is that everytime x refreshes, x goes top so the last line is not visible.What I need is a javascript that when x refreshes, scroller automatically goes to the last line
I have a large form that uses jquery's .change to rewrite html select forms, make some calculations, etc. It works great if I don't reload the page via a refresh or a back. If I click back or refresh it doesn't change some of my form's selections, but all of the jquery generated stuff doesn't recalculate. Is there a way I can trigger a re-evaluation? I tried
I have page A that redirects to page B. Now I want to go back to the page I came from(Page A). Using javascript:history.go(-1)"> I can go back but not in FireFox , It by pass the previous page. How can I solve this problem. Is there a way to get previous page URL
