In that case, there is no "action page" from the pov of the browser... just an 
http redirect header, which the browser doesn't put into the history.

1) put a hidden field in the form (called "frmSubmitted" or somesuch) and 
populate it to "N".
2) when the form is submitted, check that the value of this field is "N". If it 
is, set the value of this field to "Y" and continue with the submission. 
Otherwise, pop up an alert or use some other method of handling the situation, 
but do not submit the form.
3) other option: check the value of this field onload of the page, and do 
something if it is not "N". This way the users don't spend ten minutes editing 
information only to get slapped in the face with a wet fish when they try to 
submit the form.

The back button is one of the most used browser features - users get a little 
bent out of shape when you disable it without warning.
