If there is an onload event it does not fire when the user navigates back to the page after having been elsewhere, the page is at the state when the user left it.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. put an onload event e.g. an alert
2. visit the page and trigger the event
3. go to another URL, hit the back button and the onload does not fire again.
Actual Results:
No onlaod fired when using the back button on 2.0.0.11 Linux, 2.0.0.11 Windows Wista, 2.0.0.12 Windows Vista & 2.0.0.12 Linux
Expected Results:
Onload should trigger when the page is loaded.
Test code. Both do not function, either as a script or as an onload.
<html>
<head>
<script language="javascript">
window.onload = function(){
alert('hello world');
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="alert('hello world');">
Go to any other URL and hit back button to get to this pae again, alert box does not come up !
</body>
</html>

You should use the pagehide/pageshow event if you want your
handlers to be fired on back/forward navigation.
