Back Button

Published in: JavaScript

URL: http://javascript.internet.com/navigation/back-button.html

Still wondering how to create a back button from a link or button? It's easy to do and doesn't even take a whole line!

Plain TextExpand

<a href="#" onClick="history.go(-1)">Back</a> 
<input type=button value="Back" onClick="history.go(-1)">
 
<!-- Change the value of -1 to any number of pages you would like to send your visitors back -->
