155641 - Fish4jobs, Fish4homes - back button does not work after a search

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Core :: DOM: Navigation, defect)

Description

[lsof]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.0) Gecko/20020618
BuildID:    

After searching for a house or a job, pressing the back button takes me to the
page I was on before attempting to use the back button.
Selecting a page from the back button list takes me to the page I was on before
looking at the list.
In both cases I stay on the same page.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Visit www.fish4jobs.co.uk
2. Search for a job
3. Press the back button

Actual Results:  The current page reloads.

Expected Results:  I should be taken to the previous page.

I suspect a redirect is being mishandled by Mozilla. Not sure why though  :)

[Kai Lahmann (is there, where MNG is)]

don't ask me why, but you ned to press the back-button several times... not
shure, if this is a TE or a real bug

-> Session:History

This works in IE but not in 20020716..

Just visiting the above site creates several entries in session history,
probably for each frame in the page.  (Click the Go menu after the page is
loaded). I'm guessing some funky redirects or onLoad handler at the site is
confusing session history.
