For some projects you may not want your respondents to use the back button to change answers on previous pages. You can set up your survey as "forward only" which will remove the survey back button:
1. Go to Tools > Response Settings.
2. Check the Forward-Only Survey option.
Note: Turning off the back button does not prevent the respondent from using the browser back button

Hi Dave!
Thanks! With the script I think I can work things out.

@Thomas: Thank you for your question!
I'm afraid that the forward-only setting can only be applied to the entire survey.
Having said that, there are a couple of other potential options that may be worth exploring.
We have a documented solution (using a script) that allows you to remove the back button on specific survey pages. You could apply this script on each page after the quiz results:

Another option could be to break your survey into two separate surveys. Survey one would contain the quiz where respondents can navigate back. You could then use the URL Redirect Action to send respondents to survey two (where you could apply the forward only setting):

I hope this gives you some options!

Hi!
Is it possible to make it a forward only survey from certain page? I want to offer the ability to go back in a quiz, but I don't want them to change answers once the quiz score is given.

@Cortney: Thanks for taking a look at our documentation and leaving a comment! That's true! We cannot take control of a user's browser, nor would we want to. Controlling a user's browser causes frustration and concerns about security. For this reason, we don't support it. I added a note about this to the documentation.
Thanks for the tip to help us improve documentation!

this does not limit their use of their browser back button
