The page http://www.mmm.co.uk/~aw/ reloads itself every minute using the META
REFRESH tag. Every time the page is reloaded, it gets added to the browser
history, such that the back arrow on the browser lists that page multiple times.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open http://www.mmm.co.uk/~aw/
2.Wait two or more minutes
3.Click the "Back" menu button (the down arrow by the back button)

Actual Results:  The "News" page is listed multiple times in the "Back" list.


Expected Results:  The page you were at before the "News" page should be listed,
and the "News" page should not be listed at all because you're still on it.

Using <META HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" CONTENT="60"> inside the <HEAD> part of that
document to refresh the page.
This has been fixed for over a week.  Please try a newer build.
