go back links, anyone know one Options

[synatribe]

like I go on a site and they have like a back forward link, how do you do that?

You can easily do something like that with java script:

CODE

<a href="java script: history.go(-1)">Back</a>

that looked too easy lol, I thought I needed to upload an entire javasscript file, lol :] thank you :]

edit:// it dosent work

[karmakiller]

Are you using it with a website that supports Javascript? Stupid question, but are you using it on a personal domain.. Also if you haven't been to a previous page there is no page for it to take you back to.

You can easily do something like that with java script:

CODE

<a href="java script: history.go(-1)">Back</a>

Without the space (between the colon and "history").

A slightly simpler code is this:

CODE

<a href="java script:history.back()">Back</a>

(It only allows you to go back one page, whereas with the first one you can go back multiple pages if you change "1" to a different number.)

Hope that helps.

oo yea, thank you, it was the space between the java and script :] lol :]
