If you go to this URL:

the order of the bugs are ont the same in Mozilla as in Netscape 4.7 and IE

I haven't had the time to debug where it goes wrong in the URL.

Adding URL field

Comment 2

[Gagan]

yes that is because you are requesting the order from a parameter which says
order=Reuse+same+sort+as+last+time I am not sure how that part is implemented
(my guess would be cookies) cc'ing bugzilla guru for comments and marking this
bug as invalid.

Comment 3

[Terry Weissman]

Yes, it's a cookie.

Comment 4

[Henrik Gemal]

It gives different results even without the "order" parameter.

Comment 5

[Terry Weissman]

Yes, because the default value of the order is "reuse the last order".  So,
removing the order from the URL shouldn't change anything.

Comment 6

[Henrik Gemal]

Ok. Thanx for the info. Resolving as fixed.
