Question posted in 
I have been trying to figure out a way that when a user clicks on the escape button and when the user clicks the browser back button, it just redirects to the webpage that it replace. I found the code that works kinda well:
function getAway() {
// Get away right now
window.open("http://weather.com", "_newtab");
// Replace current site with another benign site
window.location.replace('http://google.com');
//Prevents back button from going back to website
}
$(function() {
$("#get-away").on("click", function(e) {
getAway();
});
$("#get-away a").on("click", function(e) {
// allow the (?) link to work
e.stopPropagation();
});
});
function checkStorage() {
var myVar = sessionStorage.getItem("myVar");
if (myVar != undefined) {
window.history.forward();
}
}
function check() {
sessionStorage.setItem("myVar", "true");

<h2>Our Mission<small><br>Working World Wide to Stop the Silence and Cycle of Abuse</small></h2>
<p>The International Child Advocacy Network, Inc. (YesICAN) is a leading global provider of online information for those who have issues around child abuse. It is our mission to work worldwide to break the silence and cycle of abuse. <strong><em>We</em> believe</strong> that
child abuse could cease to exist if everyone had the capability to receive accurate, up-to-date information about abuse and then had the capacity to receive assistance and support to change.</p>
<h2>How We Make a Difference</h2>
<p>Our website provides information, statistics, and definitions of abuse. We also have the <a href="community-rules.html"><em>Yes</em>ICAN Community</a> where individuals who have questions regarding child abuse and domestic violence can join with
others to discuss various concerns and ideas around these topics.</p>
<p>The premier service of our organization is our <a href="chat-schedule.html">facilitated chat</a> groups. <strong>In these groups we offer an opportunity for abused children and adults to speak with others and to get council and support from trained facilitators.</strong> These
facilitators have gone through a 60-hour training lead by a Licensed Therapist. To date, we have had over 44,000 participants in our chat rooms. We run specialized chat groups for teens, adult-survivors, victims of domestic violence, individuals
who are in close relationship with abuse survivors and parents.</p>
<h2>Our Current Focus</h2>
<p>Our focus for now, is the development of an on-line parenting program. In this 6-8 week program, individuals will receive training in non-violent parenting. This training will include dynamics of both physical and emotional development, and appropriate
discipline. In addition, each member of the program will have access to support groups where the topic of each weeks' training session will be discussed. During this time specific issues and concerns that come up for each participant will be
shared in a safe and supportive environment.</p>
<p>It is our hope that in the future, we will provide an international support forum, specifically targeting military personnel and their dependents that are based outside of the United States.</p>

If after pressing the “Escape” button you want the user to redirect to some other page and don’t want him/her to return even if they press “back” in the browser then here is what you can do.
Include onload event in your body tag as,
Now use the below script,
UPDATE: If you already have called some function on
onloadyou can use the concept of callback function because defining multiple functions inonloadcan have issues in some browser. Here is what you can do,I would implore you to not break the back button. We’ve known it is a bad idea to break the back button since the nineteen-nineties.
Users have an expectation of how their browser will work, when you intentionally break the way something normally works you will frustrate, irritate and even possibly anger them. Many people will refuse to use your site if it behaves in unpredictable or non-standard ways. It is easy enough to accidentally make things hard to use, it is a bad idea to intentionally make your site harder to use.
