Back to a previous page

Hi,

on a questionnaire page I use
<form method="post" action="Search. ks/Show" target="Results ">
where no frame with name "Results" exists, yet.
The browser opens a new window and displays the 'results' there.

Is there any means to get back to the previous "questionna ire" page ?
A simple link won't do since I don't want to loose the contents of the
questionnaire which the user has filled in already.

history.go(-1) or history.go with any other negative number
doesn't work (as the BACK button of the browser doesn't work either)

Is this possible?

Many thanks for a hint,

The new window has no history and you shouldn't use history.go for
navigation anyway.

Don't open a new window.

Is there a way to make the browser move back to the previous page via code behind on the server? The effect would be the same as the user clicking on the browser's back button. Thanks. -- moondaddy@nospam.com
