Hi,

Looked good, but wasn't effective unfortunetly :(
Here is what I did in the script :

$submit = "<td><input type=submit value=Back name=\"needm\" 
Onclick=\"javascript:history.back();\"></td>";
# As I used it frequently

Here is where I use it :

#-------------------
sub check_input {

  if (!($icname)) {
    print "<table><tr><td>You have to choose an IC-name, else I cannot create a new IC 
for you</td>
        ${submit}</tr></table>";
    $exit ="on";
  }
  if (!($icname =~ /^[A-Za-z0-9_]+$/)) {
    print "<tr><td>Sorry your IC-name cannot contain special 
characters</td>${submit}</tr>";
    $exit ="on";
  }
  if (!($feature)) {
    print "<tr><td>You did not fill in a feature !! </td>${submit}
          <td><input type=submit value=Ignore name=ifeat></td></tr>";
    $exit ="on";
  }

  if ( "$exit" eq "on" ) {
    print "</form></html>"; exit; }

} # End sub check_input

# -------------------------------


And this is the source of my final page with my history.back(); button :

<head></head><body bgcolor="#99cccc" text="#000000" link="#0000FF" vlink="green">
<form method=get><tr><td>You did not fill in a feature !! </td><td>
<input type=submit value=Back name="needm" Onclick="javascript:history.back();"></td>
          <td><input type=submit value=Ignore name=ifeat></td></tr></form></html>


I know it's a lot, but thanks for your help in advance !!
