40104 - Previous scroll position is not restored after reloading

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 41555

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect, P3)

Description

[Koike Kazuhiko]

If I push reload button in the middle of a long web page,
I'm forced back to the top of that page. 

This problem doesn't occur on Linux builds.

Is this a dup of bug 16806?

Yep.   Looks like a dupe

It looks like this was *not* fixed by Eric's fix for 16806, (i'm seeing it on
061708 linux) so this should be a separate bug (above is a dup that came in
today). Reopening.

Eric, I'm Cc'ing you as you probably know what's going on here and if you can
extend your 16806 fix to do this. Assign yourself if you want to go for it.

Confirming this bug as I see it on all platforms with the 2000061908 builds.

This is actually bug 41555, because scroll position is stored in session 
history, and none of session history is restored when pressing reload right now.  
I proposed a one-liner fix on that bug report that should also fix this bug.

Marking dup of 41555
