    ...and before anyone says "Don't disable the back button, it's really irritating", I need to stop users being able to go back and resubmitting a form (credit card payment form),

    ...so either I need to be able to disable the back button, or make the form be expired in some way..

    Can anyone help?

    Why not place a link and it will open in a new window?

    Code:
    <A HREF="http://www.yoursite.com/form" target="_blank" new window</A>
    target="_blank" = New Window

    Then they cant go back.

    Thanks, that's a good idea, but I think I'm going to try some server side scripting, as described on this site..
