You can use the below code in the home page to disable the back button.

XML

<script type = "text/javascript" >
function disableBackButton()
{
window.history.forward();
}
setTimeout("disableBackButton()", 0);
</script>

Everyone who told you this can be done, is an idiot. You can write code that seems to work, but if someone wants to break it, it's trivial to do so. You cannot stop the back button from working. Instead, you need to fix your code so that the pages do what you want, for example, having the source code redirect if the person goes back, and turning off caching so that the browser does not cache the page.
