Quoting Eugene Kerner <[email protected]>:
My 2 bobs worth again ...
To my fellow developers out there: "Dont use the back button" is not
a solution.
So many websites now are breaking the back button with things like
ajax, and then rather than fixing their mistake they are sayiong
saying "stuff it the user shouldnt use the back button".
But guess what, the user will use the back button, so all you are
doing is making your site or application dodgy and unprofessional.
The biggest offender is facebook.
This is an ignorant statement. How is one supposed to fix this?
There is absolutely no way to reliably/consistently work around
browser UI design, which is inaccessible to anything we can do
remotely via code. (We tried capturing back button presses in DIMP
1.x, but it is impossible to catch all cases so it has been removed).
What you are saying is that dynamic refreshing of page elements must
not be done, and all page interaction must be accompanied by a total
refresh of all page elements. Seems like a gigantic step backwards
IMHO.
