Not actually. Back button has always been a headache for Web apps. The best

way is to educate users not to use it. That said, even myself sometimes

press back button in a web app!

You have done a great job and I am watching your progress with interest.

Surely there must be a way to disable the back button like intraweb does.

Not an elegant way to solve the problem but it sure works.

Thanks.

In Intraweb there can be more than one pages. Each new Form opens a new

browser page so back button may make sense, but in unigui there is only one

page and everything is rendered inside that page. The question is what back

button is actually intended to do? Consider that you have lots of open

forms and you press back button. Should it close the last opened form or

what?
