I want to display a message when the user clicks on browser back button. For that, I have used below lines of code and its working fine in IE and Firefox browser.In chrome the below code is not working until I click on anywhere on window. Without clicking anywhere on window then if I click on the back button then it is going back. Anyone solution will help.

    history.pushState(null, null, location.href);
    window.onpopstate = function () {
        ShowAlert('Back button functionality is disabled.', 'Error', 20);
            history.go(1);
     };

I think that nothing you can do about this, this is probably some security or abuse prevention feature. – jcubic Sep 04 '19 at 11:53
