Does anybody have a snippet of code for adding a back button to the top of the report in order to return to a launch page or to a prior report?

Do you need something beside the browser back button? That seems to work fine for us.

The back button ordinarily would be sufficient but there is a specification beyond the conventional return option that will return to the launch page.

Jax,

Search on JavaScript:history.go(n); or JavaScript:history.back();

Or if it has to go to the same page everytime you hit the back button, make it a hyperlink to that page.
