As far as I know it is not possible to disable the browser back-button.

Something like this should work:

  • create a web page in which your solution will run inside an iframe (search in this forum for “iframe” for some tips)
  • provide users a link to this page that includes a _blank target, so that there is no history to go “back” to in the new browser window

The url of your solution will not be shown in the address bar, and the Back button will be greyed out … so the address bar has now become irrelevant. Perhaps run some js to hide the address/navigation bar of the browser window. (a web search will help with the code for this)
