History. Go (-1) parsing in different browsers

Today I encountered a problem:

<A href = "#" onclick = "history. Go (-1)"> back </a>

When you click "back", under IE and firefix, history. go (-1) can play the role of backend, but it does not work in chrome, use history. go (-2) takes effect.

Later, I studied it and found that in IE and firefix, it was resolved to execute the onclick event, that is, execute history. the Go (-1) page jumps away and does not execute the href of the <A> tag. However, in chrome, not only the onclick event is executed, but also the href of the <A> tag is executed. Therefore, we need to add return false to The onclick event to prevent <A> tag href from being triggered. That is:

<A href = "#" onclick = "history. Go (-1); Return fasle"> back </a>

Or:

<A href = "javascript: void (0)" onclick = "history. Go (-1)"> back </a>
