The disabling of JavaScript is no problem for our intranet application, since our application requires JavaScript. Maybe someone will argue now that applications should not require javascript, but as long as the clients are happy with the application, we are happy :-)

But you are right with the script not working anymore in > 2.0.4. I just tested it, the strange thing is, sometimes it works. I dont know why though.

If disabling of back button functionallity is not possible, probably the best thing is to avoid session scoped beans as mentioned before.

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.

Hi Sergio,

we use on every JSF page the following javascript code:

<script>
history.forward();
</script>

When the user pushes back button he is automatically forwarded again.

Just a workaround though.

   Hello.
I am using MyFaces 1.1.5, Tomahawk 1.1.6 in my WEB Aplication, and i have a requirement mandatory to disable the browser back button while the user is interacting with the aplication. The requirement is really serious and compromise the usability of the aplication, can anyone tell me if it is possible to do anything to avoid the use of the browser back button?, or at least to control the use of it trying
to avoid the consecuences it carry.

   Thanks in advance, sorry for my english.
