Clearing the history in a web browser

[wsyeager]

I have the following problem in my programming scenario:

Someone clicks on a link to take a Math Placement Test which opens a Math Placement Test pop-up after entering the password and submitting.

They close the pop-up window without taking the test, and then click on any other link.

They then click on the back button on the browser and it takes them back to the previous page, and the closed pop-up window pops up again.

How can I clear the browser history (in the code-behind) to avoid this problem?

You can't clear the history. It sounds like you might have a function firing from the onunload event in the browser.
