Thanks for the reply.

Any way my main requirement was if I can't disable it than hide the toolbar for application.
So, I open the application by using window.open() in first page and close the opner.

yes ... that would be one of the workarounds ... did you check whether the backspace-key might make a problem ... be sure to have no control focused in your page and press backspace ... usally that triggers the back-action ... ynd you may want to suppress that event?

ok ... :) let me give you an example to avoid that in firefox/mozilla:

[CODE=javascript]var event_keypress = function(e) {
var whitelist = { 'input': 1, 'textarea': 1 };
var target_n = e.target.tagNam e.toLowerCase() ;

if (e.keyCode == 8 && !(target_n in whitelist)) {
e.preventDefaul t();
}
}

document.addEve ntListener('key press', event_keypress, true);
[/CODE]
this has to be adapted for IE which uses attachEvent() instead of addEventListene r() ...

kind regards
