68495 - loading of page stops when back or forward is grayed out

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(Core :: DOM: Navigation, defect)

Description

[Igor Izyumin]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.76 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.2.17 i686)
BuildID:    2001021021

When the first or last page in history is reached before the page that comes
before it loads (e.g. if back is clicked repeatedly), loading of the page stops
before it is loaded.  The status bar shows "connecting to [site]" or some other
status message, but the stop button is grayed out and loading stops.

Reproducible: Sometimes (depending on the speed with which back was clicked)
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a new browser window and go to at least 3 pages.
2. Click "Back" repeatedly until it reaches the first page.  You should not give
the browser enough time to load the page before that.


Actual Results:  The first page stops loading as soon as the "back" button is
grayed out.

Expected Results:  The first page should have loaded completely, and the back
button should've been grayed out.

Reporter is this reproducibe easily? I didn't see any problems at all. Try downloading the latest nightlies and creating a new profile. See if that fixes the problem.
