Hi,

I want to show a pop up saying 'You are not allowed to click browser's back button' on click of browser's back button.
This should happen ONLY on existing web page and also ONLY on browser's back button click. Dont want this to happen on any other controls' click event.

Please help.

Hi,
onbeforeunload will execute on every controls' click which make a page navigation. That should not happen. Actually I have a button to go to previous page. So I want the user to know about that by giving a message on browser back button click.
