This has the same symptoms as bug 665964. " The back button remains inactive even after navigating to different pages. It only seems to affect a single tab. I have no idea how to reproduce it."
Could be related to bug 682115.
Happened again.
Happened to me last week, too. No errors in the console. This is Very Bad.

I've seen this too on various websites (hint: I don't use Google+ that often), but unfortunately I don't have an idea how to reproduce this. Matt, is there anything that QA can do to help us come up with steps to reproduce this?
I may have seen this when pressing the back button after clicking a link on the current page but before it loaded.
And the pages involved were all from bugzilla.
(In reply to Timothy Nikkel (:tn) from comment #5) > I may have seen this when pressing the back button after clicking a link on > the current page but before it loaded. Can you come up with steps to reproduce with this idea please? It's *much* needed here. :-)
I wish I could, but I've only ever seen it once or twice. I tried playing around with this idea but I didn't reproduce.
Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.9; rv:25.0) Gecko/20130715 Firefox/25.0 I can't reproduce the issue on the latest Nightly as described in Comment 0. I'm setting the status of this bug to Resolved Worksforme. If anyone is still encountering this issue or can provide information that could lead to reproducing it, please reopen.
