How to set a back button to the caller page

Hello,
An application have a page that can be called by several other pages, for instance, an "addContact.faces" can be called by several other forms, when the user adds the contact or press a back button, the application should go back to the caller page.
How can I implent this?
Thanks in advance,
Juan

As an alternative, you could Ajax the stuff and put it in a popup div, which is a common technique nowadays. Then the user doesn't even navigate away from the page he/she was on, plus it is relatively easy to implement in a generic way so multiple pages can use it.
Search for "css popup div" on google if you want to see this in action.

  • How to set a New Tab as the start page in Firefox and lock in my choice of web sites

    You may set the New Tab page Firefox shows when opening a new tab as its start page, and you can lock in the web sites you want displayed there.
    I set my browser to open a New Tab as its start page and have locked in six destinations from which to choose on my start page.
    First I open Firefox and open a new tab. Then I delete any open tabs other than this New Tab. Optionally, I can also set a second tab to open to a specific web site
    Next I go to Tools and Options (or Edit and Preferences in Linux) and select the General tab on the far left. Click on
    [Use Current Pages].
    Each time I open Firefox it will open showing me the New Tab.
    I can select from pages that I have already visited the six pages I want to have appearing on my New Tab every time. Supposing there are no pages locked in yet, and I don't want the site in the top left. I hit the X in its thumbnail's top right corner, it disappears and every other site thumbnail moves up and there is a new site appearing in the sixth slot. Note that if I have visited one page frequently, it may appear more than once, or be replaced by itself. If that happens, just keep deleting until the page you want shows up.
    If I find a site that I want to save, then there is a thumbtack in the top left corner of the thumbnail. It is black, but if I click it it turns blue, and the thumbnail is a keeper.
    This web site is in the second row, second over, but I want it to be up on the top row. Just drag and drop and the two sites exchange places. Make sure it has a blue thumbtack. The lock-down thumbtacks and delete X symbols appear in the top left and top right, respectively while the mouse is hovering over them.
    It is possible to delete a saved site, and it is possible to undo the thumbtack. Simply click the X to delete or click the blue thumbtack to unlock the site and turn the thumbtack black.
    You may choose to tack down a few sites and let the remainder float in and out, driven by your browsing history.
    Through my use of this approach, I have instant access to my club's web site, two Webmail sites, and some other often-visited places on the Web, all in one start page.
    About the only thing I really don't need there is a Google search box, for if I enter my search terms in the address bar I get the same result as if I had specifically typed in the search box.
    Some add-ons, often potentially unwanted programs (PUPs), will replace the Firefox about:newtab (address of the New Tab) with eBay, Facebook, Twitter icons among others, and a different search engine. These icons may have a nicer appearance than the default Firefox New Tab, but you may also be looking at extra, unnecessary work for the computer, especially if behind the pretty icons there is a hidden agenda.
    Personally, I would stay clear of these add-ons, and perform some scanning with an up-to-date antivirus and antimalware software.

    If this is not a pinned (App) tab then the home page should open in that tab.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

  • HT1918 I am trying to set up my new replacement iphone 5 and i dont know how to transfer my back up to the new phone.

    I am trying to set up a new iphone 5 replacement and i don't know how to get my back up to the new phone.

    Well you would be first need to be using the ITUNES program. Not be on itunes the internet page. The program will usually be a music note icon on your desktop. IF YOU ARE GOING TO THE INTERNET = safari , internet explorer, firefox, etc ....your not using the program itunes. YOur surfing the web.
    with that said , always make sure your running the latest version of itunes. If on a mac  >in the upper left , next to the little Apple, click on the word itunes> check for updates.
    windows users > where it says FIle EDIT View Controls Store Help across the top> select help > check up updates
    >Then plug your phone in
    > then when it appears in the itunes window , click on the iphone > it will bring up the option to restore from back up

  • How to disable or redirect the back button on the browser tool bar

    I am creating a web help file for a web based software
    application. I am using context sensitive help, when I click on the
    help for a topic and close the window, when I click the Back button
    on the Internet Tool bar it goes back to the help instead of the
    software.

    Doubleposted: [http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5379620&tstart=0]. Please continue over there.
    Please do not use the back button to edit a message. You're going to repost the message. Just use the message's edit button instead.

  • The bottom bar on my mail has disappeared which means I can't create, reply or forward to an email. Any ideas how to get it back? Touching the screen at the bottom doesn't work!

    The bottom bar in my email seems to have disappeared which means I can't create, reply or forward any emails. Any auggestions to how to get it back? Touching the bottom of the screen doesn't work. Thanks.

    Close all apps in the Multitasking Drawer; Double Tap Home Button to open drawer, Swipe up on each app to close it. Repeat until all apps are closed, touch home screen.
    Restart phone, hold both Home and Power/Sleep buttons down at the same time, continue to hold them down until the Apple Logo appears, Release both buttons and wait for phone to restart.
    Check email app to see if bottom bar and new email icon have come back.
    If not, delete the email account in settings and then add it back in again.
    If mail still not working as it should, you may try doing a Reset All Settings reset in Settings => General => Reset => Reset All Settings.  You won't lose any data, music, apps, videos,pictures, etc.  But you will have to go back in and turn on or off any settings you changed on your phone because everything will be set back to factory defaults.

  • Old values are displayed when i click the back button of the browser

    Hi all,
    I am having a INPUT screen having 2 textfields and a "Confirm" button. When user enters values in these textfields and clicks on "Confirm" button, another CONFIRMATION page is displayed where these values are just displayed as h:outputText. But when user clicks the back button of the browser previosly entered values are getting displayed in the INPUT screen. My question is how to remove these values or set to null on click of the Back button of the browser?
    Thanks in adv.

    Hi,
    i believe this should handle the browser. For instance, you have to tell him with meta tags, not to cache the website. Until yet I didn't succeed in doing so!
    With kind regards,

  • When I click on a result of a Google search and then go that web site, the Back button on the toolbar is grayed out and I cannot return to the search results.

    When using FF3.6 and making a Google search, when I click on a result and then go that web site, the Back button on the toolbar is grayed out and I cannot return to the search results without going to History. This does not happen all the time; about 1/2 of the time.
    This problem is not limited to Google, but occurs with other sites as well.

    If you are talking about searches from - http://www.google.com/ - are you logged into a Google account all the time? If so, check your "Search Settings" from the "gear" in the upper-right corner of that Google search page and see if you have '''Open search results in a new browser window.''' check-marked, at the bottom of that preferences page. When that is check-marked and you have Tab options in Firefox set to '''Open new windows in a new tab instead''', you will get search results always opening in a new tab instead of the same tab. As to why that works different for "sponsored links" I don't know, I haven't seen the "sponsored links" for years now, I have a GM script that blocks those advertisements.

  • How to use a back button in action pages?

    Hi all,
    I have created a user login page,home page and user profile page.
    If the user provide correct username and password in the login page he will be taken to home page.
    In the home page he will be having his username and a link to view his profile.
    When the user click on the link "My Profile(user profile)" he wil be taken to that page.
    In my profile page the user can edit only his firstname,lastname and password .
    On the user profile page i have placed a Back Button(using javascript: on onclick event i have used history.back()) to go back to home page after editing his profile.
    If the user edit his profile for n-number of times then atlast if he wants to go back to home page-then he wil cilck the back button.
    Now the problem occurs like the back button not going to home page and it simply going back with the edited history.

    I can see your problem. You may use javascript:history.go(-1), javascript:history.go(-2), ..., to go back one page, two pages, and so on. But how does one go back an arbitrary n pages? The link href="home.cfm" isn't a good solution for the browser. It makes a new call to the server which, as you may have discovered, can overwrite all the changes made at the browser. 
    You should use the Javascript variable history.length. If you open n links in succession, starting from page0.cfm, then the browser holds the value of history.length as n. So, experiment with something like
    <a href="javascript:history.go(-history.length)">Go home</a>
    or
    <a href="javascript:history.go(-history.length+1)">Go home</a>

  • How do I make a button onj the form which will submit and send the pdf as an email?

    how do I make a button on the form which will submit and send the pdf as an email?

    You can set up a button with a "Submit a form" action and use a mailto type URL to specify the email address you want the forms sent do. If you want to send the entire PDF, select that option and not FDF or anything else. The mailto URL should not include any spaces and the "mailto" part should be lowercase, like:
    mailto:[email protected]
    This will attempt to initiate an email using the users default email client. If the user does not have one set up or there is some other problem, the email might not get initiated. If it needs to work with Reader versions prior to 11, then the form needs to be Reader-enabled, which you do in Acrobat 11 by selecting: File > Save As Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools

    Would you mind helping me please?
    Cordially

    Click on the Desktop or open a Finder window. Select Preferences from the Finder menu. Click on the General icon in the toolbar, then check the items you wish displayed on the Desktop. Similarly click on the Sidebar icon to configure what appears in the sidebar.
    These preferences can be all different for each user. When you create a new user your pre-sets are not duplicated in the new account.
