Imitate "Back Button" action

Does anyone know the command to "imitate" the "Back" button on a browser
in .NET. I have looked in the Redirect but can't seem to find anything. I
can re-direct to a specific page but my users come from differnet places so
would like to put a "Back" button on the page.
Thanks.

This is best done with client side script. The following HTML input button
has the same behavior as the back button.

<INPUT type="button" value="Go back!" onclick="histor y.back();">

I would appreciate any help with the following problem. I have several different htm pages with (simalar) forms that are processed by the same PHP script. If there is data missing on the form, the script displays an error page (using the header() function) and informs the user to press the browser's "Back" button. The problem is that when the user goes back to the form's htm page, all the fields are blank. I would like all

How do I create a form that allows one to submit a form, then press the "BACK" button on the browser, and allow the user to see the data he posted? It seems as though this information is lost. For instance, <form method="get" action="/contact/default.asp" name="ContactForm"> .... </form>

Yes, I know why would I want to create a back button when there is one on the browser? Because that's what the users want! they want a "Previous" button that they can click from any web page in our application that will do the exact same thing as the Back button in the browser. Can anyone give me any suggestions on how to do this using VB .Net? I have Googled for "Create Back Button" and found stuff in JavaScript and HTML but nothing in...
