That is, if you go to page a, follow a link to page b, follow a link to page c, and then manually enter page d, clicking Back will take you to (c-1) or page b. To reproduce this, do this: 1. Go to http://www.yahoo.com. Follow the What's New link. Then, follow the Inside Yahoo! link. 2. Manually enter a URI for another page. (I used http://www.excite.com). 3. When it finishes loading, click Back. You are returned to the What's New page on Yahoo!. Expected result: you are returned to the Inside Yahoo! page.

Happens on Mac OS 8.5.1 and Win NT 4 SP 4.

Re-assigned to radha@netscape.com and set target milestone to M5.

I don't believe this is a duplicate. bug 3846 deals with the fact that the back button does not deal with manually entered urls. this bug is best thought of in this manner: load page a - follow link to page b - manually enter url for page c press back - you go to page a, not page b if this is the same underlying problem in the code, please re-mark as a duplicate.

Yes. This is the same underlying problem as 3846. Marking again as duplicate *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 3846 ***
