Question

How can I navigate to the last visited page when ‘ESC’ key is pressed. How can I do this using Asp.net mvc (c#). Please help

The escape key doesn’t cause any kind of postback, so you won’t be able to do it with .net exclusively. What you’ll need to do is capture the escape keypress with Javascript.

document.onkeydown = function(e){ 
          if (e == null) { // ie 
            keycode = event.keyCode; 
          } else { // mozilla 
            keycode = e.which; 
          } 
          if(keycode == 27){ // escape, close box, esc 
              // Go back one page
              history.back()
          } 
        };
