Hi, I am trying to incorporate a back button to take the user back to the last webpage they where on. I can put the button below the video but I would prefer to keep it within the video.

The normal javascript for html is <FORM><INPUT TYPE="BUTTON" VALUE="Go Back"
ONCLICK="history.go(-1)"></FORM> which works fine out side the video. When i try and put it in the video using the javascript action it does not work.

If you look at my tour

http://www.holidaynerja.co.uk/vt/Tourweaver_JFRES.html

It is the <<PREVIOUS button I am trying to apply the action to.

Any help greatly appreciated.

There is a option in TW called 'Backward'. The action take you back to the last viewing scene. 

Actions > Scene > Backward

Gr, Harry

Sorry, just to make nyself clear. If you where to click on my <<previous link in the VT it should take you back to this forum.

It does seem as though the Execute Javascript function does not function so good. I have tried every which way with this basic javascript and it simply does not work.  

Hi nerjaace

I know exactly what you are trying to do. I cant remember if this is available in previous versions, but in TW3, create your button, click ACTIONS then MISC and from the drop down list double click on EXECUTE SCRIPT. when the script box opens type in ...

javascript:history.go(-1)

If you need to go back further than the last page, say two pages, replace the (-1) with (-2)

Hope this helps

Willie

Hi Willie, thanks for that. This is exactly what i have been trying to do and indeed your bit of script should work, but sadly it does not. If you can get it working please let me know.

Cheers

In the meanwhile you can place the history-javascripaction outside the TW scriptbox.

<script type="text/javascript">

 // <![CDATA[

 var so = new SWFObject("twviewer.swf", "sotester", "940", "620", "9.0.28", "#FFFFFF");

 so.useExpressInstall('expressinstall.swf');

 so.addParam("allowNetworking", "all");

 so.addParam("allowScriptAccess", "always");

 so.addParam("allowFullScreen", "true");

 so.addParam("scale", "noscale");

 so.addVariable("lwImg", "vwh-001_vrtour.jpg");

 so.addVariable("lwBgColor", "255,232,232,232");

 so.addVariable("lwBarBgColor", "255,255,255,255");

 so.addVariable("lwBarColor", "255,255,202,31");

 so.addVariable("lwBarBounds", "297,430,356,17");

 so.addVariable("iniFile", "config_vwh-001.bin");

Both use exactly the same javascript of .. javascript:history.go(-1) When the back button is clicked, you are returned to the launch page. this works for me on IE& but have not tried it with other brousers though. Try my example for yourself. it would be interesting to know if it is a brouser issue. URL to back button example ... http://www.ipan360.co.uk/test/back_button.html   Willie
