Details

From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux 2.2.16 i686; en-US; rv:0.9) Gecko/20010505 BuildID: 2001050521 It's my own website, so I want it to be usable with as many browsers as possible. I use only HTML (generated server-side w/ PHP), no Javascript or VBScript... (bile rises in my throat even just typing that...). Occasionally, when I hit the back button, the contents of the page are repeated down-page outside of the table that contains the first (correct) copy. If you stop by the site to test, it happens most often on the Messages page (a link that only appears when you log into a game - luckily, the Example game is open to all.. password 'example'), but I've seen it happen on others. I've tried numerous times to reproduce the same symptoms with Netscape 4.73, IE 5.??, Lynx 2-4-8... No problem with them. Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1.Enter something in a text area (in a form in a table) and submit it. 2.Hit the Back button. 3.That's all it seems to take. Actual Results: Content from within a table is repeated down-page. Expected Results: Reproduce the page I was looking at with no change.

Is the source page dynamically generated? Does it change size?
Status: UNCONFIRMED → NEW
Ever confirmed: true
Yes, the source page is generated with PHP, and the table changes size depending on the content.
Okay, I think this is a dup of bug 79983. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 79983 ***
