STEPS:

Open new window.
From URL bar:
javascript:document.cookie="ipchecking=off"
Go "back"
Go "forward"

observed: error message in javascript console.

I think this is a problem w/ javascript url's in histoy setting a cookie in
"javascript:"
>Open new window.

what page is loaded in the new window? or is it empty?
my first step was any http: URL in the window.

http://www.mozilla.org.

I also have the js strict and debug js prefs on, btw.
This is a dup; there are known issues with the "go forward to javascript: url"
thing -- it ends up with the wrong security context.
