javascript thread: RE: I'm stuck in a loop and I can't get back......
Thanks! I replaced my statement as follows and it works great!
<script language="javascript">
location.replace("Page A.htm");
</script>
Now the "back" button works properly.
P.S. The 'space' in my URL is just a typo. My website name isn't really
Page A. htm, but I work for a federal agency and we're not supposed to
give our real names until the site is "live" and official.
==============================================
Hi,
Instead of just location, you can use location.replace("Page A2.htm")
(And avoid using spaces in your url's they should be replaced with %20 !)
