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 "questionnaire" 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.
