Neverside

Javascript: cool bit of code

<a href="JavaScript:history.back()">&lt; Back</a>

I was reading CSS tutorials today and I was looking at the code to see how they layed things out when I found that. Enjoy.

You can always use the standards compliant way and use <link>

or even use the onClick property inside almost any html structure. For instance an image

like:
<img src="back_arrow_image.gif" onClick="javascript:history.back()">

You need to have a <link>-enabled browser to view the links. You can download a link toolbar for IE here:

So because link isnt navtivly supported by IE then it would be bad to use it unless I want to hide it from IE....
