Is it possible to totally disable the BACK (and FORWARD) buttons in a browser when within a RAP application?

Thanks, John

No, you can't do that in any web application. You can set an exit
confirmation to prevent leaving the application though:

Greetings,

I thought as much.
It was just an idea!
Thanks for confirming Tim.
