1. go to www.amazon.com 2. select "videos" in the search menu 3. search for "twister" this will get you a page that is the result of a form submit. 4. Click back 5. Click forward You get to a page that says: Browser Bug? It would appear that the web browser you are using (mozilla/5.0...) does not know how to resubmit forms correctly when you try to reload a page. Haven't tried this on all platforms (still building), but i suspect it's everywhere.

Resubmitting requires local history to store the form element values.
This stumble yet occurs as of Lose98 Apprunner build 1999060808, at http://www.onelook.com/ .
