How to deploy an application disabling the back button of the browser?

Is it possible to disable the back button of the browser
application-wide? Or it must be done in each form?
In any case, how?

BACK buttton is a property of the client browser and cannot be controlled from server side aspx page/code

I am not aware of anyway to disable the BACK button. But you may be able to use JAVASCRIPT and clear the history. When you clear the history, the BACK button will be automatically disabled

Another think some sites do to get this done is, open a new window from your site without the toolbars. In this case, users cannot see the back button. But smart guys can press the 'BACKSPACE' character in keyboard and go to the previous page

When designing a webpage, is there a way to disable the back button? It must be possible. I am asking because there are certain web applications that I have used that require the user to never press the back button from certain screens. If the back button is pressed, it will bill for charges, even if the user is pressing the back button as a way of canceling. Another example would be Mambo CMS -- if you click the back button on...

Hi all, I've got a rather unique problem (I think), and I'm hoping someone can help me out. I developed a solution for my company using MS Access 2007 with the MS Access 2007 Runtime. Everything is fine with the application itself although we've just discovered that at the bottom of all 2007 Runtime applications there's a "Powered by Microsoft Access" button which, when clicked, opens a browser and points itself to MS's Office web page.

The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it.
