Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Jedzilla]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040626 Firefox/0.9.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040626 Firefox/0.9.1

When I go to the URL mentioned above and select from the menus and go to the
next page, returning to the original page with the Back button results in one of
the menu choices remaining selected.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to http://www.ati.com/support/driver.html
2. Select "Windows XP" from the first column
3. Select "Graphic Driver" from the second column
4. Select "RADEON Family" from the third column
5. Click the "Go" button
6. After the next page loads, hit the browser's Back button
Actual Results:  
"Windows XP" is still selected in the first column. If you click on it, nothing
appears in the second column and you have to select another option from the
first column first and then select "Windows XP" again if you still want that choice.

Expected Results:  
All selections should have been cleared completely when clicking the Back button
to return to the page with the menus.

Suggest invalid.  Loading from cache should preserve the state of the page.

so, is this INVA or what ?

Comment 4

[William Bumgarner [:zsinj]]

This bug was last touched before 1.0.4. Is it still reproducable?
Try the latest branch build (1.0.5): http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/
Try the latest nightly trunk build (v1.0+): http://www.mozilla.org/developer

The website in question has since been redesigned. A new testcase needs to be provided, otherwise this is WFM.

Resolving WFM per the various comments on this page, though given the steps in comment 0, it could just as easily be INVALID.
