Going Back

Going Back
1 Jul 2007 08:42:26 -0600
Hi,
I have a form on my site which when filled out incorrectly opens an error page.

I have added a navigation button underneath which I have linked back to the 
page with the form on so users can correct whatever is missing. The trouble is 
that the form is then blank, meaning they would have to retype everything 
again. If I click the back button I am taken back to the form page with the 
content still there. Is it possible to create a link for the button that 
behaves the same way as the back button?? And just to add, I am a total buffoon

when it comes to html, so very basic instruction would be appreciated lol.
Thanks,
James

To "go back" one page in NOF...

- In the box where you normally assign a link, click the Link Type 
drop-down and select External Link.
- In the New Link drop-down, select javascript.
- In the box to the right, enter this: javascript:history.back()
