Display modal on back button click
Hey all,
I've received a task wherein we're displaying a modal on an order form when the user takes certain actions that will trigger a modal offering a discount or some other product depending on a vendor's settings. One of the requests is to trigger the modal when the user clicks the back button. Essentially, the user clicks back, the modal pops up saying "before you go, here's the offer", and then never triggers again.
As annoying as it is, I figure I should look into how this could be done. My idea was to
It's difficult for me to determine if there is left a way to implement this reliably, or if it's effectively (and probably rightfully) not possible. I figure even if I could, it's liable to break as browser versions are released and the discussions continue. Is anyone aware of a way I could do this reliably, and in such way that it wouldn't be any more of a headache to the user than it has to be?
