I am creating a simple email form, where the user clicks a button and it opens a popup window, you can then progress through the form.Now i have put a back button on there, which works in chrome. When you click it, it returns to the previous page retaining all of its data. But when i come to use it in IE it does not work, unsurprisingly. It does, however, work if it is not in a popup window in IE.So what is wrong with this popup window?This is the code i am using to open the window, i am starting to think that the lack of a toolbar, back and forward buttons etc; is the cause of this problem.\[code\] <input type=submit value="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15879811/Get Quote" onclick="window.open('test_email1.html','mywindow','width=800,height=450','toolbar=yes', 'status=yes')">\[/code\]
