User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20021212 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20021212 With this latest Alpha my back/forward buttons are making the page go back/forward twice, where they only used to do it once. This exact same thing happened in Opera 6.x where it was fine before. I think I have the latest drivers, and disabling back/forward in the IntelliPoint control panel means I loose the functionality altogether. I posted this on MozillaZone too (http://www.mozillazine.org/forums/viewtopic.php?p=18998) which WillyWonka came up with an idea about. Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1. Press the back/forward button on the mouse (with a few pages of history)
Can you reproduce this problem with a new build of Mozilla and the latest Intellipoint drivers? >This exact same thing happened in Opera 6.x where it was fine before. Doesn't sounds like a mozilla bug then...
I get this too, very frustrating. Doesn't always happen but happens regularly enough to be very annoying! Still happening with build ID 2003010808. Started happening around 1.3a, hard to be sure. Definitely didn't happen with 1.0. I considered that my mouse might be freaking out, but what could the mouse possibly be sending that Mozilla should go back two pages? Anyway: Microsoft Intellimouse Optical, Win98.
>Can you reproduce this problem with a new build of Mozilla and the latest Intellipoint drivers? I downloaded a nightly a day or two ago and it the problem still there. >Doesn't sounds like a mozilla bug then... But the problem doesn't seem to be there in Opera beta 7, unless the just haven't implemeneted the InteliMouse drivers yet? >...what could the mouse possibly be sending that Mozilla should go back two pages? On MozillaZine forum WillyWonka said maybe Mozilla was detecting the back button being pressed and changing the page, then the InteliMouse drivers were sending Ctrl+Left and making the page go back again. Although I've actually had it go back about 4/5 pages, which is REALLY annoying! It is a bug that I think needs to be fixed - I find it so annoying that I've gone back to 1.2.1.
Attached patch patch (deleted) — Splinter Review
I've been having this problem too since 1.3a on win98: So I fixed it. This patch causes the WM_APPCOMMAND handler from bug 30431 to return 1 to notify the driver that the event was handled.

Is this patch in build ID 2003011208? I am still seeing the double movement, but have also had a small window popup appear when I hit the back button. The title was "Alert", it was only a title bar with no window space, and only a close control.
Looks good in 2003011405 (earlier nightly wouldn't install). Thank god for that, it was driving me nuts :)
Verified based on comment 11.
Status: RESOLVED → VERIFIED
Well the bug is still present in the latest nightly 2003010508, so it's either not been added yet, or there's still something to be changed. Happens on both back and forward.
2003010508 is not the latest nightly, it's from Jan 5 (0105). The bug was fixed on Jan 13.
Whoops. Sorry about that, I must have opened the wrong file! You're right the bug seems to have been cleared up. Thanks a lot Yoni.
