As mentioned at the beginning of the chapter, a browser stores the current URL on a stack when you follow a new link. When you press the “Back” button, the most recently visited URL is popped from the stack and reloaded into the browser. Can the “Forward” button also use a stack? Try this out and draw a diagram illustrating what happens when you use the forward and back buttons.

What will be an ideal response?


The “Forward” button can use a stack. When an item is popped from the “Back” button stack, it can be pushed onto the “Forward” button stack. When the “Forward” button is used it simply pops from its stack and reloads the URL into the browser.
