IE BACK problem

I created a form with a list box item .when a user logs on
in that page and clicks three times on diferent items in
the list box , if he clicks the back button on the IE the
browser will bring him one step before .
i need to know how can i catch that back event of the IE
so i can move the user to the page he was before .

This is probably the most annoying thing for web programmers.... really,
there is nothing you can do.

Search around on Google, there are a few hacks to get around the old back
button. (usually Javascript, since there's no robust way for a server to
know what the browser is doing) But these are more duct-tape than
anything else.

I've been bad about documentation so far but I'm going to try to be better. I've mostly worked alone so I'm the only one, so far, who's suffered from my bad habits.

Before I do it, I thought I'd ask other programmers what information they find useful. Below is a typical class I've...

Hello, I realize that this may not be the best place to ask this question, through the application is asp.net. I also realize that questions about disabling the back button are generally met with derision, so let me explain: (1) The site is actually a web-based application, not a "web site" per say, and is not accessable by the public. It is an application used internally by the company I work for, though it accessed by employees

Has anybody else had this experience? Is there...

I have a fairly complex form (generated by means of an ASP 3 page). The form is used to define a query against a database. After running a query, the user hits their browser's back button and goes back to the form, where their selections show up. They can change whatever they want to change and resubmit the new query. Mostly, everything works fine, with radio buttons, selection lists, check boxes all coming back in the state they were in...
