I've searched FocalPoint for information on web browser back button behaviour in B.I. Dashboard but haven't found an answer.

As we all know, the back button does not do what the user expects it to do - navigate to the previous web page. This is because the browser history has several links related to B.I. Dashboard - the user will have to click the back button several times before navigating out of B.I. Dashboard.

Is there a solution to this? May I assume that each entry in the browser history is one WebFOCUS call on the B.I. Dashboard page? Could we embed a JavaScript function in the fex/html file of each call to delete the current history entry - thus keeping the browser history empty of WebFOCUS calls?

Thanks,
