    Hi Guys,

    I've a problem with a web site I'm working on that I hope someone can help with.

    I have a page which when a form is submitted, presents the user with a 'Please wait' page, before using a meta redirect to send the user to the next step in the process.

    However, when a user hits their back button they get redirected to either a 'page has expired' page, or just to the redirect page, which just sends them forward again.

    What I want to be able to do is change the first value of the window.history object to the url for the previous step...

    I know it has to be possible, but I can't for the life of me figure it out...

    Cheers,

    Zaltais

    Not really what I'm looking for at all I'm afraid, but I think I've worked out a way to get the desired result I'm looking for in perl (albiet a very messy way of doing it)

    Cheers anyway,
