(Core :: DOM: Navigation, defect)

Description

[David Woehning]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050915 Firefox/1.0.7

When I click on a story on www.startribune.com, I get the story.  When I click
the back button, it takes me back to the top of the page and not to the location
I was at.  Then I have to search again finding where I was.  This is hard
sometimes because there are a lot of stories listed.  Other websites return me
to the exact location.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to any news page on www.startribune.com
2. Click on any story+say half way down the page 
3. Click the back button and you will see what I mean

Actual Results:  
The back button does not take me back to where I was, it takes me to the top of
the page.  THe Microsoft IE does not do this.  It takes me back to exactly where
I want to be.

Expected Results:  
The back button should take be back to exactly where I was on that page.
