I vividly remember working on my school’s website in 1997 with Microsoft FrontPage. I had built a rather complicated system where it would be possible to arrive at the same page from several origins. Whereas most web-pages had hyperlinks or allowed the user to use the “Back” button on the browser. I decided I was going to have none of that amateur stuff or reliance on what is now referred to as “browser chrome” (though if the term even existed back then, I surely wasn’t aware of it). So I looked into this JavaScript thing, and wrote my first ever script embedded into a button: onclick=“javascript.history.go(-1)” I was so proud of myself. For about a year users of my school’s website were visibly amazed.
