<edit: sorry for misspelled 'button', can't change title>

I've written a nice little script only to find, checking in ie, that the self-refreshing iframe breaks the back button - when you hit back in ie, you just get the previous iframe, which isn't really the point at all. Opera, firefox, and konqueror all have it "right" in making back go to the main frame. Is there any way to fix this ie behavior with javascript, one that would set the behavior of the back button to apply to the main frame, and not the iframe?

Thx!

Think I got the answer, posting here in case others have similar question:
it uses window.location.replace() -
