  Hello;

  As I have been looking for multiple articles on saving history when performing partial postbackand then pressing back / forword buttons the state of the form reset , most of the examples make ajax request on the same page.

  We are using telerik controls 2011 Q3

  In my case; we redirect to anther page (as shown in the link below ) sample project and then when we press back button the form is empty or gets loaded like a new request.

  Please find the attached project and advise

  Appreciated

  Thanks

  Hi Amjad,
  
  The browser Back and Forward functionality is only available when a full postback has occurred and that is the reason for them not to remember the last page state after ajax request. However, you can enable the browser back and forward buttons by enabling history through the ScriptManager on the page.
  
  For more inormation about browsers history with Ajax you can check out the below articles:
