User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041031 Firefox/1.0RC2 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041031 Firefox/1.0RC2 Here it goes: whenever you visit a page with a form on it, that will essentially redirect Firefox when data is submitted, the forward button can be odd. Go to the URL given. When you go there, follow the (crappy >_>) instructions on what to do: you are to copy the link shown (actually, any site would do), go there, and then hit the back button, to return to the form. Then, submit the form (with at least 1 character in it), and you'll see the Forward button will remain, after the data is submitted and Firefox essentially visits two pages after the form submittal: Upon the data submittal, the php file called in the form action will send Firefox a Location header, which will redirect Firefox back to the form page. Note that it is not using any variation of the javascript "history.back" or whatever it is, it is just redirecting Firefox back to the page. Firefox is sent to dst.php, which then redirects Firefox to form.php, not sending it back, but moving it forward, like any normal redirect would do. This only occurs if the redirect is to the form page; any other page results in the Forward button, correctly working, not being clickable. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.

Statistically, we have found that bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code. While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we are asking for your help in focussing our efforts.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved. Thank you for your help in this matter.
