prevent history files

[Cyberomni]

Hi all!

I'm looking for a way to prevent the browser (IE, Netscape) to create the history files while surfing some of the pages of a website. This is for a web aplication that I was asked to build.

I realize that in this way, the back button coulnd't be used and it's ok like that.

If no solution are available to prevent history from being created, is there any way I can erase history files?

Thanks

I seriously doubt that,any manipulation of history object was not intended.

There are the only methods a client is allowed to use when it comes to history.

length - Returns number of entries in the history list

back - Loads the previous URL in the history list.

forward - Loads the next URL in the history list

go - Loads a URL from the history list.

next - Specifies the URL of the next history entry.

previous - Specifies the URL of the previous history entry.

current - Specifies the URL of the current history entry.

And last thing,I seriously doubt that you can delete all the history records using JavaScript.

cheers

so what you're saying is that there is no way I can prevent files from being loaded into the temporary internet files folder or cache folder?

Not with JavaScript..
