Hi,



I want to create a "Back" button on an asp.net page, and assume that the 

way to do this is to use the http referer.  However I am more than a bit 

baffled by the SDK documentation on the HttpWebRequest and HttpWebResponse 

classes, and can't work it out myself.  



Can anyone give me some simple VB.NET code to do this, including whatever 

namespaces would have to be imported?



Thanks,



JON

Can't help with a server-side version but if you're trying to simulate

the browser's back button, you could use the traditional approach...



<input type="button" value="Back" onclick="history.go(-1)" />

Hi,



Thanks for your help, but as you suspect, I am trying to work out how to 

do it with an <asp:Button runat=server> control!
