Re: disable back button

Using javascript:

e.g.

var params = 
"location=no,status=no,toolbar=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=yes,width=200,height=300";
window.open( "http://www.yahoo.com";, "", params);

Re: disable back button

2002-05-03 Thread Margaret Fisk

The best way I know of is to launch your application in another browser
window after login or launch. In that case the back button is disabled
because nothing came before.

Another way it to set up an automatic redirect so that when a user clicks
back, they get pushed forward again automatically. They can still get out by
clicking back twice rapidly or selecting a previous page from the drop-down.

Ok.  Maybe you just joined the list...

This discussion has been discussed at LEAST 3 times in the month of March.

Please visit the archives for this list at
http://archives.java.sun.com/archives/jsp-interest.html

if you're not satisfied, then visit other websites... it would be a
client-side event, not server-side.  Thus, javascript as opposed to jsp.

Hi,
Unfortunately, there is nothing which can stop the user from pressing back
button and again submitting the page, but you can have some means by which you
can monitor on the page that it is not getting visited using back/forward
button, i.e. refrainig the browser from caching the page.

One way could be using the  tag so that the page
will refresh itself, and, in the page scope, U can set some variables which will
take U ( i.e. controller - servlet will do this ) to the home page directly

Other way may be using a session level variable which identifies whether the
page can be navigated in such a way !!!

*** For more information on disabling caching, check out Phil Paxton's great
article: Cache No More.  http://www.learnasp.com/learn/cachenomore.asp ***

This is for ASP but similar technique can be devised for JSP as well.

Hi Mihir,

I have an idea.
As far as I understood, JSP Page 1 forwards to Servlet which forwards to
JSP Page 2 (the status page), right?
Make another JSP, JSP Page 3. Let the Servlet forward to JSP Page 3 instead
of the status page. On this Page 3, Output to the browser a (meta) refresh
to either the status page or your homepage, depending on, say, Referrer??
This way, when the user presses back button from the status page, he goes
to JSP Page 3, which sends him a refresh tag which redirects to the
homepage (or any other page)
If you want to, you can put all this "Page 3" code within the Status page
itself, somehow.
Oh, if you're sending info from the servlet to the Status page via the
forward tag (or whatever), u might have to use beans (or whatever)

If I'm completely wrong, hey, i'm a newbie.

Good luck,
Erwin

Hi,
Unfortunately, there is nothing which can stop the user from pressing back
button and again submitting the page, but you can have some means by which you
can monitor on the page that it is not getting visited using back/forward
button, i.e. refrainig the browser from caching the page.

One way could be using the  tag so that the page
will refresh itself, and, in the page scope, U can set some variables which will
take U ( i.e. controller - servlet will do this ) to the home page directly

Other way may be using a session level variable which identifies whether the
page can be navigated in such a way !!!

*** For more information on disabling caching, check out Phil Paxton's great
article: Cache No More.  http://www.learnasp.com/learn/cachenomore.asp ***

This is for ASP but similar technique can be devised for JSP as well.

Hi Mihir,

I have an idea.
As far as I understood, JSP Page 1 forwards to Servlet which forwards to
JSP Page 2 (the status page), right?
Make another JSP, JSP Page 3. Let the Servlet forward to JSP Page 3 instead
of the status page. On this Page 3, Output to the browser a (meta) refresh
to either the status page or your homepage, depending on, say, Referrer??
This way, when the user presses back button from the status page, he goes
to JSP Page 3, which sends him a refresh tag which redirects to the
homepage (or any other page)
If you want to, you can put all this "Page 3" code within the Status page
itself, somehow.
Oh, if you're sending info from the servlet to the Status page via the
forward tag (or whatever), u might have to use beans (or whatever)

If I'm completely wrong, hey, i'm a newbie.

Good luck,
Erwin

Re: Back button

2001-03-27 Thread Ashish Aneja

one thing that can be done is that by writing a small javascript code , you
can capture the browser's back button and write a javascript to take the
user to anew jsp page once the back button is clicked.this can be done by
submitting a new form or by using jsp:sendRedirect.
give your feedback if u r able to do it this way.

Re: Back button

2001-03-26 Thread Nasser Dassi

Here's an idea,
  Have the status be incorporated into the resulting JSP... like @ the
top... then have it disappear (javascript, or whatever) when the resulting
JSP is fully loaded (ready to flush content to the browser).
  It's a much smarter way of doing it.  It eliminates a status page... it
makes the status be on the results; except it disappears when results are
there.

As my mom would say, "duh."

I don't think you can modify the back button on the browser. I had a
similar problem and what I did is to direct the page to a new window and
close the old window and it appears no change. So the new window will not
have any back button at all.

I hope this will help you, it helped me avoid somethings.

Re: Disabling back button on the browser

2001-03-26 Thread Geert Van Damme

And besides that, I don't think there's a safe way to disable the back
button anyway.
In web development, if you rely on client side stuff, there's never a safe
way to do anything.
- disabling back button
- form field validation
- client side redirects
- javascript in general,
- applets

Not that you shouldn't use these techniques, you just have to be aware of
the limiation.

Re: Disabling back button on the browser

2001-03-26 Thread Marty McKeever

In addition to being a faq on this list, it's also one of the worst
possible mistakes you can make, in terms of usability.   Users love their
back buttons, and will react unfavorably to any attempt to disable it.  The
solution, of course, is to accomodate it.
Pissing off your users does nothing to improve your product.
It just makes you look lazy...

Re: Back Button

Your Alert call from Javascript is not in the proper event...
it should be called in the "onsubmit" event of the button..
somehow it is called after the page is unloaded.

Back Button

2001-03-02 Thread Merrill George

Hi all,
 I have developed a jsp page which on submit calls itself
recursively.
 That is the jsp is test.jsp and its form action="test.jsp".
My problem is , when it calls itself depending on certain conditions i
show an alert
on the onLoad trigger because for different conditions i've got
different  tags.

For example when i Press a 'Save' Button I get a number from a
database and i show it in the alert as
'Record 1000blah Created'

suppose i go from this page and press the back button the page appears
with the alert. with the same message
which is awkward. Is there a way to avoid this?
thanks
Merrill

 I am sure if here You press back button it will point You to search.jsp and
any further actions will be correct
 like forward back and see details.
 if it is not like this please send how it is to clarify situation.

 You should not be able to see previous results. Try to set no-cashe
headers.

keep search expression in a hidden form feald in result.jsp and validate it
all times when next an
previous handlers are invoked. If it is changed make requery(research).
( I think this is the best solution. )

of try to identify browser windows with some prodused uniqie ID within user
session

Good luck

help:session variable could not retain old data if back button clicked

2000-11-02 Thread hua ge

Hi,

can someone give me some help, I stucked here almost 2 days...

this is what I did:

1. searchForm.jsp will submit to a servlet

2. the servlet store the search results as an object  by coding:
request.setAttribute(object name, value);

3.  then the servlet will forward to a jsp page to display the data there.


RequestDispatcher rd =
getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("/employers/ge/results.jsp?mode=groupSearch");
rd.forward(request,response);


4. results.jsp will retrive data out by coding:
   request.getAttribute(object name, value);


5. results.jsp will loop through and display all records
   lines, each line contains couple key attributes such
   as name, address, phone... the name field will be a
   hyperlink to details.jsp page to show all the   attributes of this
records.

6.  results.jsp will store the retrived object in a session variable so when
the name field link bring to the detail page,the same object can be retrive
out there.


7. the results.jsp will dynamic showing [previous] [next]
   link if the total record count of the results more  than 10.

8. on the bottom of results.jsp will has a hyperlink "begin a new search"
bring user back to the
searchForm.jsp.


the above steps are all works fine if I do one search after another.


PROBLEMS:

1. if I click the browser back button to
previous result page, it looks like the previous results still showing
there, but since the session variable already overwriten by the lastest
search results, so the details page will has wrong data.

2. if I go back through browser to previous results page and that page has
[previous] [next] link, if I click either [previous] or [next] link, then
the results will mess up, it will based on the latest results count to
recalculate the page number instead of the previous results count.


can some one point out how I can retain the old data stroed in session
variable if the browser back button clicked??

appreciate your help.

Helen

trouble with the back button if I use session variable

2000-11-01 Thread hua ge

hi,

I have a jsp search page searchForm.jsp, the commit button will invoke a
servlet which going to implement the bussiness logic and store the result
object in a session object named "geCollection", then this servlet will
redirect to the result.jsp page and display the results based on the value
stroed in the session variable "geCollection".

the result.jsp display for the first search is fine.
the result.jsp has a begin a new search link, if I do a new search, the
result.jsp for the new search is also fine.

the PROBLEM is after I saw the result from new search, if I go back with the
browser back button to find the previous search result, I noticed that the
previous results page showing the same as the new search results.

I realized that the reason is everytime the servlet is invoked, it going to
store  the new results in the session object geCollection . on the
result.jsp page, it will retrive out data from geCollection. so the new data
will overwrite the old one.


I play around with some website like "www.dice.com", it does not have this
problem. I'd like to know what is the good way to avoid the above bug
happens???

anyone has some suggestion?
higly appreciated.

not available you can check out the DOMs.

  yes, you can't disable Back button. but you can use javascript
in Form::unload() event to do forward to your present page...
  -> "history.forward();"

You can use hmtl meta tags pragma to restrict browser not to cache a particular

It´s an HTML error!
You have to define the FORM tag, and put the button inside it.

Back button shows in IE but Not in Netscape???

2000-04-27 Thread Gary Osborn

The following test to see if there is anything to
report and if not displays a back button and text.
The button shows up fine in IE but not in Netscape 4.0
and I can't figure out why.

<%
if (usageReport.getNumberOfRows() == 0) {
out.println("");
out.println("");
out.println("");
out.println("");
out.println("Item Usage Report");
out.println("");
out.println("");
out.println("");
out.println("");
out.println("");
out.println("No items found that match the
search parameters.");
out.println("");
return;
}

 Hi, although it's not related to JSP :-) this is how I would do it:
 * either have two frames , one very thin (hidden).
   The frameset (top) will act as container.
   1. add onSubmit() event handler to the form.
  When the user submits, set a flag in the top frame (which
  will persist after page change)
  return false from it to abort submission
   0. :-) on page load, generate  dinamically the submit button
   i.e.
 
if (top.flag == false) {
document.writeln ("<input type='submit' value='Upload'>")
}
 
 So the user will see no submit button (although the submit
 still works ).
 * set a cookie with your state, take actions according to it

 But, all this are in vain if s/he has disabled JS.

Re: Browser back button

2000-04-03 Thread Alex Cachia

If you are using Model 2 ( ie. the browser is always posting to the front
component ).  What exactly is the browser caching?  I was under the impression
that if one used Model 2, lets say Main.jsp, each new page would be served by
this JSP, hence the browser would not know that the user had left the Main.jsp
front component so hitting back would take them to some other page other then
one within your application.  Did I dream this, or does this resemble reality.

Thanks,

Alex

No, you can't disable the back button. There is a read-only Javascript
attribute for getting access to the button, but you cannot disable it.

You can try to turn caching off on the first page (say first.jsp) and at the
top check to make sure the first page is called from some other page
(index.jsp). If first.jsp is called from any other page besides index.jsp,
redirect and don't load the page. This of course assumes first.jsp at no
time gets cached on the user's machine.

Re: Browser's back button

2000-03-16 Thread Rathinavel P

If you are loading different page after the operation (branch or
node delete whatever) ,you could say document.location.replace("anotherpage.jsp/html")
which will remove the previous URL from the browser history and hence
your browser 'back' button won't load the page again.

Otherwise,you could use response.setHeader("cache-control", "no-cache") to
remove the browser cache and hence the browser 'back' button will re-load
the page with current data.

Hope this Helps ...

   rathna.

Browser's back button

Hi,
I'm having one problem. I made a JSP that displays some kind of tree control of a
structure in database. When I browse it and delete some branch or node I can press
back browser's back button some times and then try to access deleted node or
perform some other operation. I get errors. The question is: how can I make these
"past" pages expire? Or is there some way to forward to some page that notifies "Do
not press back button!!!" when back is pressed?

just redirect your page after user hit submit.
In that case pressing 'Back' just return to
redirected page. I think it is a standard

I can sympathize with Dan's feelings, and even agree with them to a degree.
But it seems to me that (for transactional processing or other state-dependent
applications, at least), we are having to fight with the platform quite a bit
already:

* Why should a servlet/JSP author have to mess with session management
  in the first place?  Because HTTP is stateless, and doesn't support it.

* Why do we have to curse HTML (and browser developers) trying to get
  halfway decent looking screen layouts?  Because HTML was not designed
  for this, and the recent innovations to help (DHTML and stylesheets) are
  still implemented incompletely, incompatibly, and with lots of bugs.

* Why can't we build "interactive" apps like you can with a GUI, where
  the UI changes dynamically as you're inputting things?  Well, this is
  changing with DHTML, but we're not there yet.  In the mean time,
  designers are constrained to the frame-at-a-time sort of style that
  typified 3270 screen-at-a-time applications.

* Why can't I disable screen controls like Back and Forward when their
  actions are not relevant?  Because there's no standard mechanism to
  make this possible.  It's only becoming possible to even disalbe a
  text input field, or a check box, when it's contents are not relevant.

The whole concept of GUI interfaces was created to improve on the 3270 terminal
style of interaction, and it made a huge difference.  But if you look a little
closer, you see that well-written GUI apps are often still very modal -- they
enable and disable screen controls (menu options, buttons, input fields, and so
on) on the fly.  It just looks a lot prettier.  If I could do that with HTML,
I'd feel a lot better about leaving the screen controls visible.

But the real key goes back to the requirements of the application -- no matter
what media you use to present it.  Some apps require logical steps to be
performed in a certain sequence.  With a 3270 app, or a client/server GUI app,
that's pretty simple to enforce.  With the current generation of browsers,
that's a lot harder to do technically, and ths problem is excaberated by the
fact that users are used to navigating at will around web sites, and that is
their mindset whenever they sit down to a browser.

Yes, you can (without too much pain) make your web app recognize what state it
expects, and politely complain if the user does things out of order (much
better than crashing :-).  But I don't think that is what Dan was getting at --
it really starts with application design.  If your application can be designed
to be reasonably stateless, then by all means do so.  But if you can't, you
still have to enforce modal behavior as required -- and the fewer chances you
give users to make a mistake in the first place, the better off you're going to
be.

Re: Handling The Browser Back Button, et al (tms)

1999-08-17 Thread Kirkdorffer, Daniel

You know the only problem I have with some of what Craig is saying below, is
that I think that we should stop trying to fight the platform, and start
developing for it.  By that I mean we are developing "web" applications, so
they should work with the environment they reside in, the web browser, and
take advantage of the features of the browser.  Don't just think of this as
recreating the legacy interfaces they're replacing.  The whole concept of
controlling sequence of movement to me is a bit constraining in such an
environment.  Users should have more freedom than what they had on a 3270
terminal 10 years ago, but it would seem that's not what people are willing
to provide.

That's not to say I'm discounting the challenge.

Just my .2 cents.

One thing I do that helps avoid this problem (but certainly doesn't eliminate it)
is to open my JSP-based app in a new window that does not have back buttons,
location bars, or any of that stuff.  Visually, it looks much more like a standard
GUI application when you do this, so users are more likely to "get it" that this is
a transactional application system, not a browsable web site.  Of course, this
still doesn't foil the savvy users that know about the right mouse menu or the

Also, it's possible that continued use of the "Back" button by users might be an
indicator that some additional navigational controls would be useful in the user
interface.

This is a much better solution -- your app knows what stage of processing it is
expecting next, so it can reject input that comes in out of sequence.

This is a valid concern, because often the two windows will share the same
servlet/JSP session.  State management checking, as you proposed above, will help
here.  In addition, since I'm opening my app in a new window, I specified a
particular target window name, so that the user cannot open the app more than once.

As browser-based applications start to proliferate, all developers need to
continually educate users to use ONLY the navigation controls provided by the apps,
instead of surfing and bookmarking the usual way (unless your app is smart enough
to deal with the real life behavior under all circumstances).

Re: Handling The Browser Back Button, et al (tms)

1999-08-17 Thread Mike Knowles

Frank,
What I usually do is after I handle the data from a form submit, I send a
redirect header to display the response page. This way if the user clicks
reload, it just reloads the page they were redirected to. If the user clicks
back, it takes them back to the original form. At this point, if they click
"Submit" it will have no impact since I clear the shopping cart or mark it
as sold when I process the submit. What I will do is redirect to an error
page that says "You have already submitted an order", and I would redisplay
the confirmation information.
