window.location.hash is a string property, not a method. It "produces" nothing. As for why *assigning* something to it results in unexpected behavior...

Specification
DOM Level 0. Not part of any standard.

http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/DOM:window.location



i tried this one in IE and Safari but it doesnt give a back button..
when i click the back button the window isnt changing anyway..

is there a way to stop firefox producing back button?

Possibly, but there is no standard for the window object, so you will take your chances with consistency. This looks like it has promise, though:

I could only speculate on Opera or Safari support.
