Hello,

Im developing modules for dnn sites for some time now. I always navigated through controls by using the Response.Redirect call.
What i want to do is to simulate the Browsers Back button. the thing is that i've tried some javascript in order to do that and nothing works
I've tried

window.history.go(-1);
       OR
Browser.History.Back;


and the page seems to reload and not going to the previous page (i tried calling the functions twice but again the same result)
Anyone knows how i can simulate the Back button in dnn framework

Thanks in advance
dom

The items that you are listing should be working.

Are you doing anything that causes the user to navigate to the current page multiple times?

Is there a reason you want that vs letting the user click the button in their browser? You can put Back on some pages to send them to the proper spot (like a shopping cart to go back a step). But it seems the browsers back functionality is the easiest. Like Mitchel said, your code seems fine unless they are going to the same page twice. Maybe scan the history for the first different page and send them there?
