IE8 and javascript - Back/Forward button in Robohelp

I am using Robohelp 7. I use the following script for my Back button - javascript:history.back(1);

This works fine in FireFox and IE7, but not in IE8. Has anyone found a solution for javascript issues in IE8?

Thanks,

Deborah

    Hi,

    Try javascript:history.go(-1);

    Does that solve your problem?

    Hi,

    Just did a small test on IE8 and history.go(-1) worked fine...

    Can your problem be an IE setting? Can you try on another pc or use IETester?

    Also, where are your buttons located? In the toolbar or in your topic? Can you share the HTML and complete javascript of your buttons?

    Greet,
