Hi John, I know what you're thinking of even if I think you mean the onbeforeunload event. I had the same problem with my 5 key mouse, the left-sided button is by default set to "go-back". But I think this is not the same problem, because of, that's like a user click the browsers back button. I don't want to forbid such default browser navigations.
The problem is more that users did not see the difference between a editable text field an one that's set read-only. So sometimes the users click into it and try to delete the content with backspace and this is causing IE (v9, still not sure if other versions are affected) to load the previous visited website... and so they are losing work and have to login again.
