Regarding what happens when the user presses the back button, you may
find the info I just added to the wiki helpful:

Hi,
Thanks Marcelo,
For the back button of the browser I have disabled it because user does "tax
declaration" on the web site.
The problem with the back button of the browser is to handle the values typed
by the user 3 pages ago...so if the user go back on this page, the form is
empty...so I prefer to forbid this action...(using javascript :
action.history.forward(1))
Moreover I do not know if when the user press the back button, if the browser
call back the JSP page or the struts action?
but I would like to be able to redirect the user to the previous page by
calling the appropriate struts action.
I would like to know how webmaster usually do this behaviour....
TIA

He is questioning your requirement. It does not seem reasonable to
put a link to the last page visited when the browser has a built-in
"go back" button. I do press the back button ... a lot.

Sorry, haven't look closely at his answer

I used this long long time ago and... frankly ... I don't remember.
Just try it and put your findings here or in the wiki. Also, if you
use the referer remember it is browser-generated and, as a principle,
you can't trust user input...
