Reload this webpage
Press the reload button to resubmit the data needed to load the page.

You can't disable the back button. Instead you should fix your site so it doesn't break if the user does go back. Or, failing that, put a message on the screen telling them not to go back, but obviously you can't stop them but when dealing with matters on forms people tend to obey these messages. I know when a payment page tells me not to refresh or go back I'm sure to do neither of those things as I know their bad coding will probably result in a double payment.
