\*hello friends,

in my project after logged out when the user hits back button he is  
redirected to previous page but when i click or any event is occured  
then  
page is redirected to login page using before filter, but i need to  
restrict  
the user to view only login page before logged in. Since i included lot  
of  
script files this particular code in onload function is loaded after a  
few  
seconds only.

```
history.forward();

```
