Dear Sirs!

I need to disable the browser back-button in my Prime Faces 7 / Sapphire application run under Wildfly 17. I tried all options (including comments) from the question below, but nothing happened:

Hi,

Could you please update your PrimeFaces and template version and try again?

Best regards,

Dear Mr. olgubasak!

I have updated my Primefaces to Version 12 and my Sapphire Template to Version 5.1, but the problem still persists.
What would you advise me?

Thank you and kind regards,
Alexander

Hi,
When I did research on your request, I found two separate code examples that you can use. Can you try the ones I sent?

This code moves the page forward in response to the browser's back button being clicked, which effectively disables the back button.

Code: Select all

history.pushState(null, null, location.href);
window.onpopstate = function () {
    history.go(1);
};

Another code:
This JavaScript code disables the browser's back button as soon as the page loads.

Code: Select all

window.onload = function() {
    if (typeof history.pushState === "function") {
        history.pushState("disabled", null, null);
        window.onpopstate = function() {
            history.pushState("disabled", null, null);
        };
    }
};

I hope one of these codes solves your problem.
Best Regards,
