Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.the first page call the second page.
On this second page a link (history.go(-1) that work correctly go to the first page
2.Now by DHTML you change the inner txt of an other element of this second page
3.You want to return to the first page

Actual Results:  
it's impossible

Expected Results:  
The software have to go to the first page like before clicking on the button next.

Just change an inner txt isn't a new page and if is it, how go back by javascript.



this code work with IE
this code work with histort.go(-2)
the original button of Firefox work correctly
-->invalid
you go to href="#" with the Next link (so it adds a Session History entry), use
href="javascript:next();" instead, then history.go(-1) works.
