BACK BUTTON
by David Ancell
---------------------

This is a JavaScript VTM file that allows you to put a button on your page that acts like the browser's back button.  Although every browser that I have seen has a Back button, I've found that it is considered more user-friendly to have a link on a page that returns you to the main page or the last visited page.  However, you may have a page that people can access from several pages.  Having a JavaScript button like this one enables you to retain the functionality.

INSTALLATION
---------------------

The installation requires several steps that I am outlining below.

1.  Extract the goback.vtm file to the folder where you have stored your VTM dialogs.  The default for HomeSite is:

C:\Program Files\Allaire\HomeSite\Templates\TagEditors

2.  Extract the goback.vtm file in the folder where your button icons are stored.  The default for HomeSite is:

C:\Program Files\Allaire\HomeSite\Templates\TagEditors\Images

3.  You'll need to add the button to the toolbar.  The first step in doing so is to right-click the toolbar and click Customize on the menu that pops up.

4.  You can choose or create the toolbar that you want to add the button to, and then click the button that says "Add Custom Button."  You will find it on the lower, right hand corner of the customization dialog.

5. Another dialog will pop up.  Near the top, you will see a label that says "When I click this button, I want to:" with a drop-down list below.  Select "Display a custom dialog." from that menu.

6.  You will then need to enter the appropriate information in the spaces provided.  I have shown you what it will look like if you used the default HomeSite installation.
