I've been using this script for a back button i built for my site.

<a href="javascript:history.go(-1)"><div id="back_button"><img src="../direct_images/back_button.gif" /></div></a>

However, i had just realized it does work for IE while works fine in other browsers including chrome, ff, ...

Does anyone know whats wrong with this piece of code?

Thx
