40677 - Back button doesn't become active after following a link.

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 40676

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect, P3)

Description

[Paul Hendrick]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.7 [en] (X11; I; Linux 2.2.14-15mdk i686; Nav)
BuildID:    2000052420

Go to www.theregister.co.uk, then follow one of the story links.  Because the
page keeps the same URL at all times in the loaction bar, even after a story
link has been clicked, Mozilla doesn't seem to realise it's viewing a different
page.  And as a result, the back button remains shaded, and there's no way back
to the mail page.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.browse to www.theregister.co.uk
2.Click one of the story links
3.when you're done with the story, see that you can't go back.

Actual Results:  The back button still remained shaded, and I had to return to
the main page manually.

Expected Results:  Mozilla should realise that it's viewing a different page,
even though the URL is the same (I think it's known as a Stealth URL), and allow
me to go back to the main page.
