Check out the javascript method "location.replace()"...i think that'll do
exactly whatcha want.

If i remember/understand correctly, i think your wait page could do a


location.replace("results.htm");


So, then, on results.htm, clicking the back button should indeed go to the
form page since the wait page was never added to the history.

You are trying to change the behavior of the users browser.
My best advice

Don’t do that!

Maybe you can salvage a hack from this

Best of luck!!!

Re: Back button skip a page?

[Roy Truelove]

Maybe in your "show results" action, a session variable can be set that the
person saw the results.  Then if they go to the "Request is being processed"
page, the page can check to see the the results were seen, and if yes,
automatically redirect to the results page.  You'll probably have to make
sure that the "Request is being processed" page is not cached.. set the
cache-control header to "no-cache".

Hope this helps,
Roy
