I just had a little problem - now running the official M6-fullcircle again - When visiting www.mozilla.org, already visited links seem to become unavailable. It was e.g. not possible to visit the bugzilla bug-report form a second time after writing a bug-report - neither with the back-button, nor from the mozilla.org menu structure. However this didn't seem to affect visits to other links/sites. A short time later Mozilla6 crashed for no visible reason (after trying to delete the memory and disk cache) Yours, Uwe.

Radha, is this our bug?
Status: NEW → ASSIGNED
Not sure what he means by not available. The 'Back button' doesn't take back to bugzilla page or skips it? or it takes back but the form entries are empty? However, back & forward button implementations have changed in M7. Please try it when M7 is released and update me. i'll hang on to this until then.
And uwezi, could you please read teh following and provide more complete info fo us to hekp you out. M7 will be out in the next day or too. :-) http://www.mozilla.org/quality/bug-writing-guidelines.html

Jan, I'm researching this problem with some test cases I have. I will be sure to check results on all platforms.
With the latest build (1999062308) on Mac, Windows 95 and Linux, the visited links are functioning correctly. If I click on a link and return back by using the Back arrow, the visited link is now displayed in a different color and is still functional.

Session History has nothing to do with the color. Based on previous comments, I'm marking this fixed. QA folks, please mark this verified.
