84154 - Hang on hitting Back

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 82236

(Core :: DOM: Navigation, defect)

Description

[James Green]

Using a build pulled from the tip today; compiled with -O2 optimisation flag.

Steps to reproduce:
1.  Go to http://jobsearch.co.uk/
2.  Enter a search query. I use 'php'. Search.
3.  Click the link for the first job entry.
4.  Hit the back button (NOT the history-arrow for it)

Expected results:
Go back to the list of available jobs

Actual results:
Hang. CPU does not get used (i.e. as if I hadn't done anything). Entire app is
dead and doesn't even draw it's GUI.

This might be a general "hit back and hang" bug, but I've only tested on this
one site, I'll try another framed site in a few moments.

Appears not to occur on other framed sites.

Sending this to history as a guess. We at least need someone to give a backtrace
for the correct component.

I tried this with a 2001061909 Linux and Win98. Upon going back I get a 
downloading dialog. Ignoring it and clicking back again takes me several pages 
back (back to this bug actually since I clicked the link from the body of the 
bug).

Maybe the download dialog came up in the background for you? CC'ing law as he 
and radha have been dealing with some somewhat similar bugs to this one.

Latest symptoms seems similar to 82236
