Description

[Travel WorldVideos]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9b5) Gecko/2008032620 Firefox/3.0b5

You arrive at the site entry point:

  http://travelworldvideos.googlepages.com/home

Using the flash navigation tabs you got to Vidoes>>any video tab , say ending up here:

  http://travelworldvideos.googlepages.com/francevids

Then you go to another video page, using the flash tabs, say here:

  http://travelworldvideos.googlepages.com/hotelvids

Now you go Back, (with the back button), and you end up at francevids page, but the Flash Menu is missing ........... got to do a refresh to bring it on the page.

This is a Firefox 3.0b5 issue ...... back button works fine in 2.14

Thanks guys,

5. Land on back page, but no flash menu displayed till refresh.
Actual Results:  
Do the 5 steps outlined above, and no flash menu is showing up till page refresh.

This issues happnes only when surfing between 2 video pages ..... guess it is more taxing on the browser. Moving between none video pages does NOT bring out the problem.

I can reproduce this with the build you're using but not anymore with the latest trunk nightly build. You can download it here:
