680106 - Navigating back to Google home page from search results hoses display

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Jerry Baker]

Attachment: Note that the Google home page has loaded but the previous page persists in the background

VERSION: FF 6.0

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

1. Load http://www.google.com/webhp?complete=0
2. Search for anything (search terms don't matter)
3. Click on one of the search results.
4. Go back two pages (back to http://www.google.com/webhp?complete=0)

RESULT

The Google search box appears but the search results text persists. See screenshot.

EXPECTED

A clean render of http://www.google.com/webhp?complete=0

REPRODUCIBLE

Always, both in safemode and regular.

I believe this is a regression as I use FF for hours every day and only started seeing it after being upgraded to 6.0 yesterday.

Ewww, seeing this using Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:9.0a1) Gecko/20110818 Firefox/9.0a1 ID:20110818030747 too.

Actually I can repro this back to Firefox 3.0 Builds => Site Bug (guessing)?

As far as I know we haven't had reports about this for ages, and it seemed to be a site issue at the time. Given no more issues in the last 9 years -> WFM.
