Well, i pasted the same code:

<a href="javascript:history.go(-1)"><div id="back_button">Back</div></a>

into a new .php page to see if it works or not.

And it does work in chrome but not IE7. I thought it might be my browser, but then i found out that code doens't work in FF either.

As of right now, the new page test.php with that back button statement has no other codes in the page.

Any more suggesitons?
