Dan,

The same principle can be used for dynamic pages. Think about it.

BTW -- turning toolbars off is easy to get past. All someone needs to do is
press shift-click on any link and the page will open in a new browser,
complete with toolbars.

Neat idea but with dynamic pages I don't think it will work. No .htm go go
back to.

There must be some way to force the history to be deleted.

Otherwise I am forced to start the site with toolbars=no for the page and I
guess that will keep it that way throughout the site. Advantage is it will I
could turn off the URL part also so they couldn't hack the post args.

But I think users might be freaked when the toolbar goes away.
