IE BACK problem

[themhz]

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.
