Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 65483

(Core :: DOM: Core & HTML, defect)

From Bugzilla Helper:

BuildID:    2001010901

Using DOM level 1 comands I am using the appendChild method to attach
an IFRAME element to the current document.  Every time this happens I
get another history of the current page added to the history list.  I
have also noticed that if you hit the refresh key multiple times then
the script is run again, but the document is not reloaded, just
another IFRAME element is added to the document.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Load the web page.  Use refresh to repeat the bug so it is more noticable.

Actual Results:  The web page is repetitivaly added to the history and at times
a second IFRAME is added to the web page when you use the refresh.

Expected Results:  The history should not have been modified, and the page
should only have one IFRAME element.

I first noticed this problem in Netscape 6.0.  This problem does not happen in
IE5.5.
