Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 114897

(Core :: DOM: Navigation, defect)

Description

[Woody Hanscom]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-US; rv:0.9.8) Gecko/20020204
BuildID:    2002020411

When you're not logged into my.yahoo.com, they give a default generic newspage.
Logging in presents a customized page. After logging in and clicking on a news
link from the customized page, clicking the back button returns the initial
default page (pre-login) rather than the customized personal page (post-login)
that the news link was clicked from.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load http://my.yahoo.com/
2. Login
3. Click on a link
4. Click 'back'

Actual Results:  The default (non logged in) page was loaded.

Expected Results:  The personalized (logged in) page should have been loaded.

It works for me (20020204 on Win NT). Sounds more like an issue with
cookies/caching. I occasionally have the same problems, but in my case it is due
to our firewall that serves a cached document. Reporter: try hitting "reload"
(ctrl+r) once you get back to the default my.yahoo.com page. If after reloading
you get your personalized page without having to log in again, it is a matter of
your firewall, and not a problem of Mozilla.
