---------------------------------
Summary: Provide the capability to disable the browser's back
button/
Key: ISIS-1285
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ISIS-1285
Project: Isis
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Core
Affects Versions: 1.10.0
Reporter: Dan Haywood
Assignee: Dan Haywood
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 1.12.0
In the Estatio app (and presumably many others, too), when the user deletes an
object then they are shown the "no results" page.
What we have observed the user then do is to press the back button. This
navigates them to the object just deleted; because it has been deleted, the
Wicket viewer shows them an error page.
With the RoutingService (introduced in 1.11.0) we have the opportunity to route
the user to some other "more useful" object, eg the parent of the deleted
object, or some other object recently visited, or the home page.
Even so, if the user does press the back button, they would still see the same
message.
This ticket is therefore to provide an optional capability to have the back
button disabled. Think it should be optional because not everyone (every
programmer) will agree that back buttons should be disabled and in any case for
some use cases, eg in read-only app, a back button is probably a good thing.
