Re: [Htmlunit-user] How to Back?

[Brad C. <bc...@bo...>]

Currently it doesn't even keep up with history for javascript to use, but 
we've written a "WebBrowser" wrapper for HtmlUnit that does this sort of 
thing for us by keeping a reference to whatever Page you want to go back to 
and using WebWindow.setEnclosedPage() on your current window. The 
WebBrowser keeps up with what's changing to store the "history" and creates 
new "WebBrowserTab"s (to isolate the history to each window) by using a 
WebWindowListener.

I'd offer some code to you but it's currently pretty tied to our product, 
though we are working to separate it out and either contribute to HtmlUnit 
or release as a new product. If it's added to HtmlUnit it might be possible 
to have the javascript use the WebBrowser for it's history support.
