ASPX Back Button

[TedManowar]

Hi,

I am looking for a way to navigate back on a webpage when an ASP button is clicked. I know how to do it in javascript, but i need and <asp:button> and not an <input type="button"> to do that for me.

Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance

asp button is server control and it will cause postback. Why do you need asp button for back functionality?

btw. You can go back using code.

can you give me an example of code to put on the onclick event of an asp:button?

On button click event just enter this:

Response.Redirect(Request.UrlReferrer.ToString)

An ASP button control will cause postback, going back in browser history does not. There seems to be a conflict in interests here, ie between your request and your demand

the reson that i need an asp: button to do that is because i need to be able to use some of the button's properties, i.e. to make it visible whenever i want

As I said use Response.Redirect. It's not perfect but it will do the trick.
