Howto reproduce:
1) Go to the URL above
2) Click on "Personen und Körperschaften" in the top right corner
3) Click on "Adle ..." in the left frame
4) Click in the main frame on "Adler, Alette". You will get a list
5) Press the "Back" button in mozilla toolbar. You will go back one page
6) Press the "Back" button again. You will get an error message like

Expected behavior: Go back one page in frame.

I have seen that problem only with frames.

Just visiting the above page creates 2 entries in session history and you can't
go back to the previous site. I anticipate some funky onLoadHandlers doing some
tricks after the page is loaded.

I tried to make sure this was the right place to post this comment.  I've been
seeing similar problems with back buttons and frames.  I created a test case
which has been able to reproduce the problem every time I've tested it so far.

1.) Go to this page:
http://www.embimedia.com/temp/moz_frames/index.html
2.) Click reload while holding the Shift key.
3.) Click the "Go forward" link.
4.) On the next page, click the button labeled "Go back".

The button labeled "Go back" and the browser back button both seem to be dead.

Seems like strange behavior to reproduce, but maybe this will help you track
down the problems.  I've seen similar trouble with the back button in other
cases, but this was the best test case I could come up with.

Mike, The problem you have described is different from the one originally
described here. It seems to be specifically related to doing shift-reload and
then doing a frameset navigation on the page. I suggest you open a new bug for
your problem and move the description there.  thanks.

Actually I'm not able to reproduce the original problem in  a trunk build from
last week. Reporter, can you confirm if you still see the problem. If so, please
include the build id.

created bug 144301 to deal with the problem reported in comment #4

Comment 8

[Matthias Falland]

With 2002051006 I don't get the error - the back button simply does not work
anymore. I stay on the last page.

I can't reproduce the original problem described here with the latest Mozilla
1.0 RC3 candidate. I don't see any error message. I can smoothly go back and
forward following the steps described here.

With Build 2002052305 on MacOS X this problem is still present. So, RC3 does not
solve the problem for me.

Radha: Even with build 2002061408 this problem on macosx persists. Why do you mark 
this bug as WFM, when it clearly not WFM for the reporter? So, can you please reopen 
the bug or should I file a new one?

Even more I noticed: When I get the described message file /0// and I confirm wiht ok, the 
URL bar is frozen. When I close the browser window, Mozilla crashes.
