I agree, however, in this case, the last page visited - the home page - is
going to immediately redirect you to loader.htm

Kathleen,

for a javascript back button, try:
<.form><.input type=button value=back onClick=history.go(-1)><./form>

but remove the dots.

Then the back button will always go to the last page visited.

HTH,
Tamara
