It's not possible to do that server-side... You could use your cgi script to write some javascript to the page that would simlulate the user clicking the back button, i.e.
print << HTML; <a href="javascript:window.history.go(-1)">edit form</a> HTML Or something... I'm not too current on my javascript syntax, but I think that's what you want. Hope that helps some. You could also try asking the perl-cgi list if you want <http://lists.cpan.org> , they are probably much more current with their javascript than most of us (at least me). -dave > Does anyone konw if it is possble to access the goback > feature built into the ie5 and netscape throught cgi script. > I can use a url in a form action to go back to the page I > wan't but the form info on the page is gone.
