I tried using the back button (which isnt availble), the back space key and the 'back' button on my intellimouse. This happens when a new page is loaded either by typing directly into the address bar or by clicking on a link in the bookmarks toolbar. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Load a page that will take a few secs to load. Slashdot.org or cnn.com 2. Begin loading a new page in the same window/tab BEFORE the first page finishes loading. 3. Allow new page to begin loading. 4. Try and go back to first page. Actual Results: 'Back' is unavailable Expected Results: Phoenix should have returned to original page.

something i neglected to mention: it is necessary to start with a new window and tab
I gotta retract that comment, this bug is not 100% reproducable, but does happen to me often.
WFM Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.0; rv:1.4a) Gecko/20030320 Phoenix/0.5 Try a newer build Az, 20030320 is very stable, but 20030411 is also quite good.
Az: does this problem still occur using a newer build together wit a fresh profile?
seems to be fine now wfm: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030426 Mozilla Firebird/0.6 I suggest you close. If u do so i will file a new bug if i encounter it again. Sound ok with you ?
Reopen this bug if you see the bug again. Don't open a new open.
