WHY! Do you want to do this??

[sakthi shan]

I want to incorporate this in my Application...

I figured that out, but what purpose is this serving?
You can not disable the back button.
If you want a useless script then sarch google for "No Right Click JavaScript" and you will find 100's of them.
People hate when you mess with their browsers, you can not hide code/pictures/text/etc since it exsists in your cache. Are you also going to disable (ALT <-) combo too?
If you are doing both of these to keep a user from going back to the previous page there is a better solution. Plus a person can disable JavaScript and get around all your little things.

can you pls. tell me that best solution???

best solution would be server side
instead of a link you can use
document.location.replace("theUrl");
It replaces the current page in the history so you can not go back to it.
Another bad solution that I am known for on the net is this link:

You can not just disable he back button. You have to do either of the things I said above. The replace method or the link...
