Both plain script a onload fail to prevent history navigation in firefox. 2.0.0.4. The user have to manually 'reload' the previous page to activate the foward script. Once he has reloaded, it always prevent navigation. Untilm user disable javascript and goes back to that page. At that point, he can go back and forth as much as he want, reactivate javascript. It will again not work until user click the reload button.
So, i won't build my application assuming user won't be able to use the "back" button. Not to mention users usually don't like to be forbidden the easy to use "back" button.
