Greetings comrade, you must link logo image to index page. Look at example:

<i>
 </i>&lt;a href="index.html"&gt;&lt;img src="logo.gif" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

@toplisekauthorJan 06.2006 — #This will not work. It should go back to old window

@abhish_dagaJan 06.2006 — #<a href="index.html" target="_blank"><img src="logo.gif" /></a>

it open index page in new window on the click of logo

@toplisekauthorJan 06.2006 — #this will do the following:

_blank renders the link in a new, unnamed window

I need to go back to old first window (base).

@deraJan 06.2006 — #<a href="index.html" target="base"><img src="logo.gif" /></a>

@toplisekauthorJan 06.2006 — #This is also not working. How to name target in the base window?

@oldmanJan 14.2006 — #If you want to use javascript you can call window.opener to reference the original window

@toplisekauthorJan 14.2006 — #How is code as I do not know with JavaScript if e.g. base window is with name base

@WebJoelJan 14.2006 — #If the new page opens in a new window, merely create a link in this now page to include (either text and/or image), and add this:

[CODE]onclick="history.go(-1)"[/CODE]

So it would maybe look like

[CODE]<a href="_target"><img src="images/goback.gif" onclick="history.go(-1)" /></a>[/CODE]
The image "goback.gif" could be an arrow or pointer, etc., suggesting navigation backwards.

I think that this might work (I haven't tried it myself), -try it and see.

The user's browser does the work. It should take you back to the last viewed page, no matter what the 'previously-viewed page' was... (This assumes that the user has javascript ability turned on).
