BACK BUTTON AND WINDOW.OPEN ISSUE!!!!

[javs1983]

Hello,

Here's my situation... I have an ASP.NET 2.0 (C#) page with a link
button.
When a user clicks the button I need it to execute the code behind
code for
the link button on click event. At the end of the code behind code for
the
link button click event, I use JavaScript to popup another browser
window
(using window.open).

This all works fine. It's basically a confirmation popup.

The issue comes in when the user closes the popup and continues to
work with
the site and they click the back button. If they click the back button
to
the correct place, the popup window appears again, which I don't want.
I
only want to popup to appear if the user clicks the link button on the
page
in question, not by using the back button.

So, would anyone know how to prevent the popup window from "popping
up" when
the user uses the back button?

Thanks.

Since .NET pages post back to themselves you can check to see if
history(0) = current page and determine to show the popup should that
be true or something similar. You could also get into using an AJAX
control with the modal popup so its all server side.

Not necessarily the best solutions but I figured there needed to be at
least one attempt.
