I’ve got a main page (index) with nav that loads content into an iframe.  
And of course when i hit the browser back button it just takes me back to the index page and doesn’t load the previous iframe content.

Anyway to fix this as opposed to scripting in a back button in the actual iframe? It’d be nice to be able to use the browser back button.

I couldn’t find any detailed explanation from googlin.

Thanks,

🍺
