Want to do this on your own browser, or on client side?

Why do you want to do this? Most users hate it, if you take away control from them. I for one certainly can't stand it, if some stupid website disables the back-button. If I see something like that, I usually leave the website immediately and will never come back.

I can agree in most cases. but im workin for a company wher we need a 1 page App..
when using swipe useres often drage form the edge of teh screen going back to the precious page.. which is annoying for the user...

to allow the back wipe i'm working on keeping track of user Position in the app so on the main screen its still works..

____ ___ ___
| 1 | 2 | 3 |
| | | |

Screen 1 is main and swipe flows in to 2 and 3 and back..
so allowing people to swipe on screen 1 would still feel natural and allow a good flow..

You cannot disable the back button of a browser using the ASP.NET or JavaScript.

i want to stop the functionality of that backspace button in safari browers

Venkatesh Mookkan 10-Oct-11 6:10am

You cannot do that. One thing you can do is block the context menu. As CodingLover said, you can write you own WebBrowser and disable it.

Try this too server side
Response.Cache.SetCacheability(HttpCacheability.NoCache);

Response.Cache.SetAllowResponseInBrowserHistory(false);
