Hi All,

Since I am new to Javascript, can anybody tell me if there any event firing for sure on page when I return to it using Back button in a browser?

The scenario:

#1. I enter the value in the text box, then use Enter.
#2. Another page appears. I am not clicking anywhere on the page.
#3. I click the Back button in the browser.
#4. I return to the previous page, the focus goes in my text box.

If in #1 I click on Submit button instead of pressing Enter, or in #2 I click anywhere on the page and then click Back button, the focus does not return to the text box automatically. But I have some code in textbox onFocus() event and I want it to fire. How can I ensure the focus returning to my textbox?
