BROWSER BACK BUTTON TO WORK!

I went through this tutorial at:
http://www.actionscript.org/resources/articles/142/1/Enabling-a-back-button-within-flash/P age1.html
in order to get this highly discussed issue in Flash based
sites sorted. However, it seems to "a bit" complicated and requires
knowledge of previous tutorials regarding this matter. Has anyone
elsewhere seen a complete tutorial how to get this done working in
every browser please (or at least their majority)?
Thanks for help.

Cool, many thanks for your help, it works very well! However,
if I was about to do the SEO I mentioned in the other post you
replied to as well, can this somehow be done using SWFAddress too?
I mean I can easily place a <div> tag in the HTML and
put the content there, however, that's only a content of one page
i.e. HOME PAGE. I read there is some connection in early stages
between SWFAddress and SEO but didn't find out how it works.
What I would want to do is to do one HTML with SWF Object in
it and div tags for different "sub-pages" of the
site if you understand. Let's say somebody will search for one
particular service from the site and google will come up with a
link to a particular "sub-page" within the FLASH
site, do you think this can be done?
Thanks again
L.

Browser back button not working with ADF Application integrated with SSO

I have integrated an adf application with Oracle SSO Authentication. Application is running fine.
Though, while navigating between pages, using browser back button , it is not redirecting the url properly
Should Redirect it to : http://<hostname>:<port>/<contex-root>/<servlet>/<id>
Presently Redirecting it to :http://<hostname>:<port>/<contex-root>
As, directory browsing is not allowed, there is Error 403--Forbidden .
Can anybody tell what changes needs to be made to make browser back button work.

In some of the documentation I have read, they have mentioned that using the back button in a browser doesn't work too well with any JSF type of application (not just ADF and Jdeveloper apps).
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E15051_01/web.1111/b31974/web_form.htm#CFHHJGJH
Instead, they suggest using buttons on the form.
There is a video on using navigation between forms that may be of value: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bsPtmRID5XI&feature=plcp

The browser back button is not working correctly when using the search funtion in ProBoards forums. Is there a known issue with ProBoards & FF?

I have submitted a bug report to ProBoards, but they cannot duplicate the problem I am having, so I am submitting this here in hopes you can find a solution.
At ProBoards Support and another PB forum while doing searches I found this problem, which continues with repeated testing over the past week or so:
url: http://support.proboards.com/search
1. enter perameters for the search (posts only by staff for the last 2 days)
2. choose one of those post results & click on it (choose a post on page 14 and not on page 1 of the results)
3. using the browser back button, attempt to return to the previous page of search results
4. rather than being taken back to the search results with my parameters, the search parameters have been removed and the page show 1000 results of posts by everybody.
I have tested this over and over again, disabling plugins, and nothing seems to alter the malfunctioning of the back button when I am doing this search function at ProBoards.
I have tested it in Internet Explorer and find that in IE the browser back button works properly with ProBoards searches. I always get the result I expect, so it's a problem with how FF interfaces with ProBoards, I think.

Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
To clear cache and cookies do the following:
#Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
#Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
#Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
#From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
#Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!

Browser "back" button won't work when linked from Catalyst graphic

I am using Flash Catalyst in (CS5 Design Premium) because I am much more a print than web designer so bear with me.
I created a .swf file in FC, and placed it at the top of a "router index" page. I linked 10 "buttons" in the .swf, each to a different anchor on the "router index" page. Clicking on each "button" jumps to the correct anchor, so far so good.
The problem is, when I hit the browser "BACK BUTTON" in IE only (Safari and Firefox work fine), it does not jump back to the top of the "router index" page. It jumps back to a previously opened page (homepage or another page), instead of back to the FC .swf graphic on the "router index".
FC apparently only allows linking to "absolute" URL's, not "relative" URL's, (so my links to the anchors are "absolute"). I don't know if this is the source of the problem with IE. I have always linked to anchors previously in Dreamweaver using "relative" URL's, and have never encountered this problem.
I looked over the files that FC creates and cannot find one that I understand, or shows an editable file path that I can change.
I hope i don't have to buy Flash Builder. Right now I have Design Premium. And... I don't understand Actionscript.

Hi azaral
Take a look at Project > Quiz Manager... > Quiz
Settings tab. My guess is that you have DE-selected the "Allow

Browser back button does not work (IE) - Error On Page message

Just take over website from our designer; I'm new, probably doing more fiddling on the live remote website than I should be...
http://www.cmcwny.org
Error On Page message, internal links work, but the browser Back button does not (at least in IE).
I have a backup of my local site from before this happened, but I do not know how to actually replace it.
Any help on either issue will be appreciated, thanks!

Hi
First, get rid of your designer, the page design/code is a mess.
There are a number of problems with the page, not least being the disabling of the back button in all browsers I tested it in, (visitors may visit once with this, but are unlikely to do so a 2nd time).
The menu system is a fixed size so that when the browser is resized it overflows the browser window.
The use of tables for layout is not recommended as it is inaccessible to users using assistive devices.
To put this more politely, if you paid for this, ask for your money back. If you did not pay, then start again and use one of the dreamweaver layouts for your page, for more info, see - http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/introducing_new_css_layouts.html.

Open previously viewed Tabbed Panel when using browser back button

I have a page containing SPRY tabbed panels, and was wondering if there was a way that if a user navigates back to this page using the browser back button, the last panel viewed could remain open. Using hash tags in the URL works for Mozilla but not for IE8. Here is the sample page: http://www.davidkneale.com/wcusa/expedition_leader.html
Does anyone know how I can get this to work in IE8?

Perhaps you missed the announcement that Adobe is no longer investing in the development of Spry. See: http://blogs.adobe.com/dreamweaver/2012/08/update-on-adobe-spry-framework-availability.htm l.
There used to be a dedicated Spry forum, but it has been changed to read-only.
Spry isn't exactly dead, but nor is it in the best of health. Add to that the fact that IE 8 doesn't support the HTML5 history management API, and the lack of replies isn't really surprising.

IE Browser back button goes to two pages back

I am not using JSPs, using a servlet ABSServlet to display the search page, after entering the search criteris I'm displaying a report page. The report page has a button 'Save As Excel' which open the report in the Excel form. When I click on this button browser asks 'Open' or 'Save'. I clicked on 'Open'. It open the report in excel form in the same page. Now if I press the IE Browser back button it takes me to the Search page instead of the report page.
Ideally it should go back to the Report page(preiosu page) if I click the back button and not to the previous to previous page. Can someone help?

You cannot (practically) modify the function of the browser's back button...
You can patch it though.
Put in the intermediate (search) page something like
<script language="Javascript"></script>
<body onload="sendback()">Not really a Java solution, but should work.

Browser Back Button after Leaving Flash

Hello -
I am currently working on a site where a button in the flash takes you to an external link. The user would like the browser back button, when you are on the external link, to take them to the page on the flash that was last viewed without restarting the flash. Is this possible? Thank you!

Thank you very much!

Ctrl+F5 and Browser Back Button

I have read many posts about these issues, but did not reach to any result.
I realize that they are a kind of validation, but how can we work around them?
I have tried to set "EnableTokenValidation" property in the page definition to false, but this causes more problems, since instead of "Creation/Insert" mode, the page appears to be in an "Update" mode.
It came upon my mind to hide browser's tool bars, but I am not sure for this...
So, please, does anyone have reached a solution, or even any recommendations?
Thanx in advance

Hi,
you are tackling two issues here:
1 - page refresh
2 - browser back button
Both are typical JavaEE issues
1 - If you submitted a page then a refresh will not bring it back into createInsert mode. If you want it to get back into CreateInsert mode, set an invokeAction on the executableSection of the binding to invoke CreateInsert on any page request
2 - The recommended way of doing this - described as a pattern in J2EE - is a dejavu token that allows you to detect duplicate requests. The best solution I saw working though is a piece of JavaScript that on the client side deleted the browser history. This way the browser back button became non-functional

Need to select link twice when using Browser back button

I see that my command_link works fine in normal scenarios.
But when I come to that page using browser back button and then select the link within the page.... the first time, looks like its regenerating the page and only when I select the link second time it is calling the action listener associated with the link.
Any clue as to how to fix this problem?
Thanks

use the following lines in your web.xml to avoid this bug of the current jsf-ri version.
<context-param>
<param-name>javax.faces.STATE_SAVING_METHOD</param-name>
<param-value>client</param-value>
</context-param>I already tried to report this bug some time ago:

How to disable browser back button after session logout..

Hi;
I want to restrict the user to use the back button after session expired or logout. By doing the session expired we are restricting the user to do any new work but I want to restrict the user to see the back pages that he surfed previously in the session.
Is there any method to disable the browser back button after the session Expired?
please help me to find out the solution..
Thanks in advance.
With Regards,
Haramohan

One possible way is automatic return to the current page by writing the following Javascript code to the previous page:
<script language=JavaScript>
function backButtonOverride(){
setTimeout("backButtonOverrideBody()", 1);
function backButtonOverrideBody(){
try {
history.forward();
} catch (e) {}
setTimeout("backButtonOverrideBody()", 100);
</script>
<%
catch(Exception e){
%>
<jsp:forward page="front.jsp"></jsp:forward>
<%
%>

Enabling Browser Back Button for FLEX App

Browser Back Button problem...

Hai all,
whn i will logout the page i will do the following...
session.removeAttribute("keyValue");
session.invalidate();
so session is invalidated, but whn i click on browser back button previos page has to expire automatically but whn i am doing manually refresh page then page will expire...
the expire condition in each page i hav done is
keyvalue=session.getAttribute();
if(keyValue==null)
response.sendRedirect("../sessionExpirepage");
its working fine but i need to do the if u click on browser back buton the expired previous page can't display...
even i tried this code..
response.setHeader("Cache-Control","no-store"); //HTTP 1.1
response.setHeader("Cache-Control","no-cache"); //HTTP 1.1
but it is also not working..or i dont know wher exactly thes above two lines are to insert n in a page.
i hope u understud my point to say.
pls tell me about this soln
Thanks & Regards,
Suryakant

so session is invalidated, but whn i click on browser
back button previos page has to expire automatically
but whn i am doing manually refresh page then page
will expire...there is no problem with your code as such , the page you get is from the history of you browser. Clear you history on every page load of your web page through javascript.
Secondly a bit advance topic there is a concept of TOKEN in Struts which is used to overcome the bugs due to BACK button in browser.
