I am developing a rails app.
(I don’t think this is a rails-specific problem)
There’s a reservation process which is consisted of 3 steps.
When a user is on step 2 page, if the user clicks ‘Previous’ button, the form data in step 1 should be the same as before.

I attached “history.go(-1);” to the ‘Previous’ button.

It works on my firefox browser.
But it doesn’t work on some IE browsers.
My IE works though.

How can I force it to preserve the form data when the page is back?

Thanks.

Sam

    Can’t rely on the client (javascript) for this kind of operation.

    You save the data somewhere at step 1, so just restore it.
