Can I customize the Forward button of a browser from HTML?

Question

Example. At the bottom of the StackOver Questions page are a bunch of page numbers (1,2,3 ...), enclosed in a set of previous and next buttons. Pressing the next time will lead me, say, to page 5, at what point I will have:

• The prev button of the page will be set to ' https://stackoverflow.com/questions?page=4 '
• The back button in my browser will have the same meaning.
• The next page of the page will be set to ' https://stackoverflow.com/questions?page=6 '
• Button "Forward" in my browser - will not be installed on anything.

Obviously, if I click the "Back" button in the browser, Forward will display a value pointing to the URL of page 5, but not otherwise.

Is there a way, from HTML (plus Javascript), to set the value of the "Browser Redirect" button? Or is this one of those things that HTML is simply forbidden?

Answer 1

You may be looking for custom links , although I am not aware of any major browser that uses them.

Answer 2

It's impossible.

In addition, back and forth is information about where the user was, and not about a specific logical sequence of pages.
