Workflow Extension Goes Back a Page Problem

[Jerry Yu <je...@vortexcreations.com>]

Hi, I am trying to use Matthias' workflow extension in my webApp. One 
problem I have is anyone did anything that can let the user goes back a 
page?  I tried to put a GoBack button on my apps and set the state of 
it. But seems, it won't let me pass it.  Does anyone have any idea how 
to do this?  Thanks in advance

Best Regards,
Jerry

Hi Jerry,

consider the slightly modified configuration taken from the test 
application shipped with the workflow extension, I attached below: It 
defines a sequence of actions like that:

-- beginWf1Transition -->  State=1 -- wf1St2Transition--> State=2 
--wf1St3Transition--> State=3 --endWf1Transition-->

the action wf1St3BackToSt2 allows to go back from State 3 to State 2.
