120234 - Back button takes you back two pages in my yahoo

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 114897

(Core :: DOM: Navigation, defect)

Description

[Imrich]

1. If you have an account with my yahoo, bring up the logon page.
2. Log into the account
3. If you have subscribed to one of the on-line magazines you will some number of
headlines. If you just subscribed, you better log off and on again.
4. Click on one of the headlines, which brings up the acticle.
5. Use the back button.
6. Now, instead of seing the list of headlines, I always see the logon screen
which I would expect when I clicked the back button twice.
The good news is that you don't have to log on again; just refresh.
I noticed this problem in many previous versions that I decided to bring it up.
I don't know if this is a problem with Mozilla for Windows, but Opera handles it
properly.

I'm seeing the same problem.

  - goto my.yahoo.com
  - you get the default page with login
  - login as yourself
  - you get your own personal my yahoo page
  - click on check mail
  - then click on the back button
  - instead of my personal my yahoo page 
    I get the default page

  Don't know if this goes "two back" or if
  it goes to the front of some buffer instead
  of the end or something.....

Sounds like this may be a duplicate of bug#114897 and/or bug#85914.

Reporter, what version of Mozilla are you using?

This is a dupe of 114897 which has already been fixed.
