Can someone show me how I can have:
<a href="javascript:history.back()" name="Back" value="Back"
style=width:40px;float:right;margin-left:0px class="button" >Back</a>
but since this href exists in a frame, it only pertains to this frame?
Im trying to make a back button that reloads the previous page the user was at.
The back button will be on a small top frame and the page that needs to be controlled will be in the main frame.
The top frame is just a navigation system, and all pages will be loaded in the main frame.
Im trying to use this Code:
<FORM>
<INPUT TYPE="button"
NAME="back"
VALUE="BACK"
onClick="history.go(-1)">
</FORM>
Does anyone know how I could accoplish the desired result using this code, or any other code? And what about a foreward button?
I'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?
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 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?
I used <input type="button" value="Back to Correct" onclick="window.history.back();"> to go back to the previous page is working, but if i use the as below instead, it does not work. what did I do
wrong?
i need go to back page using history.back() but this page dont refresh, i need this
how ican refresh the back page?
Have 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 ?
I have an input button that i have assign to. Is there a way to use this but force the previous page to be refreshed?
View 3 Replies View RelatedOn a page of mine a user might submit data several time, which adds an
entry to the history each time (similar as
http://www.google.com/trends?q=iPod...o=all&date=all).
Yet later the user wants to go back to the previous page in one step.
Now is it possible to loop backwards through the history until a
different page is reached? Has anybody coded something like this?
Has anyone been able to get back button history to work with UI Tabs.
or any way to make the back button work with previous visited tabs.
I tried using the history plug but im not sure how to make it work with ajax created tabs.
just trying to get this to work. Code is inserted into document head. I am using this on a confirmation page that comes up after submitting a form, I want the page to redirect to the previous page. I am also wanting to add a timer indicator to the page as feedback to the user.
<script type="text/javascript">
redirTime = "5000";
redirURL = "history.go(-1)";
function redirTimer() { self.setTimeout("self.location.href redirURL;",redirTime); }
</script>

I have a photo gallery that cycles images using custom buttons and replacing images from an javascript array. I do this so that I don't reload the page each time, just put up the next image so the next image (preloaded) appears instantly. I change the URL to include the image name so that it can be saved, linked, sent etc.
If I load the page and cycle through some pictures and then use the back button I can't find a way of detecting this and putting up the previous image - it just changes the URL in the browser and eventually unloads the page when it should.
I have a page which I've just added a div to so that it will show/hide 'advanced' search options. The problem is that I've not found a way to 'show' the div when a history.back() command is used.
First off I had it so that the div style was display:none. Site user would click on 'Refine Your Search' to show the additional fields. That worked fine, but the customer wants it so that when they go back from the search results to the search page it 'remembers' which boxes were ticked.
The problem is that when it does the history.back(), the 'Refine Your Search' radio button is selected but the div with the controls doesn't show. So, thinking I was clever I thought of an alternative way to skin this cat .
Instead of having the style of the div set as display:none I would set it as display:block and then have a javascript function that would set it to display:none when the page initialised. That way the 'default' state for the div would be display:block.
No dice...even though in the source code it shows the style of the div as being display:block the div STILL doesn't show.
The search page is at: [url]
Click on 'refine your search', tick a box (e.g. air conditioning) and then click the search button. Then at the bottom of the results page click the link to go back. You'll see the problem.
I need an html page that when visited automatically redirects the browser to return to the previous page it was on. here is the current code I have:
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>[code]....
this works in firefox but in IE you have to press ok in the alert box before it returns. I admit I am a javascript novice. Any suggestions
is there neway using javascript that you can detect if a vistor has clicked a link?
the reason i ask is that i need to make only certain links on an area of a page to be a certain color if they have been linked, but other ones remain unaffected. i only have control over a few links, as it is an asp application for someone to download and have inside their pages
I just finished adding a purchased shopping cart to a site and it's part php and part javascript.
The first problem is this little piece of code:
<A HREF="javascript:history.go(-1)">Back<A>
It works fine in IE6 but, wil only work once in Netscape6.2...What gives?
I search for a way in javascript to prevent browser from caching my
HTML page in its "history" and "temporary files" if there is any .
I want a page should not maintain history.what code in javascript.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm designing a web site and I designed an error page with .htaccess so that when someone types in an incorrect URL, it takes them to my customized page. Well, I used server-side programming to make it log the bad URL and check against a database if the there is a good URL matching the bad one. If so, it redirects to that page instead of giving the error. It's a good, well-written script done by me, I'll give it to anyone that requests it.
What I want to know is if JavaScript can prevent a page from being logged in the visitor's browser history.
You see, when they click the back button, the revisit the error page and it relogs the bad URL.
Is this possible in Javascript? Code:
I use a function something like this,
<a href="javascript:history.back();">Return to original page</a>
to give people a "back" option sometimes on pages.
Is there any way of directing them back to a particular named anchor on the last page?
I'm working on a little frames based web market research tool (not for public consumption) which allows us select various supplier websites via a link in a header frame, to be loaded in a main frame, from which we may drag data to be dropped into a form in a third form_frame which then submits to our database. All in all, this works nicely until we come to one of the supplier sites which has implemented a frame-killer script.
Now, I know it would be bad form (probably illiegal even) to force a site into the frames of another site for public consumption but I don't think that is an issue here so I ask you all ... Is it possible to disable JavaScript (on the fly) for a given frame only?
I have a top-bottomLeft-bottomRight frameset and three pages (details01.html, details02.html and details03.html):
<frameset rows="80,*" cols="*" frameborder="no" border="0" framespacing="0">
Determine what the previous page was that the user was viewing, even if the user arrived at my site by through the use of a browser function (history, location bar, refresh, etc.). Is this possible?
I'm not wuite sure how document.history functions - what degree of privacy is given to the user and to what extent can web pages get URLs from the user's history?
I have two frames. "Top" contains a local file on my server with the aforementioned javascript. "Bottom" is a remote website on a server I do not control. I want to use javascript in "Top" to determine what the current url is in the "bottom" frame...
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have set of frames... one contains a menu and the other a status frame. I am calling a function from the menu which sets the variables however I need some help passing those variables to the status frame. How would I go about doing such a thing?
This is called from the menu in frame 1 but doesn't work:
Code:
function jumpsec(cat, prod) {
parent.statusbar.category=cat;
parent.statusbar.product=prod;
}
// then my status frame bar has:
document.write(parent.statusbar.category);
document.write(parent.statusbar.product);
The 2 variables are blank on statusbar onload but get populated with each click.
