Back button in threads

When I am viewing a thread list (say Flash General Discussions for example) and I browser forward past the first page of results, and then open one up, and click the back button in my browser, I go back to the first page of results again, rather than the page I was on, as I would expect.

I do note that if you click the "Up to x in y" link (Up to Discussions in Forum Comments) at the top of the thread page, it does return you to the correct page.
Seems to me that this is something simple that should be automatically implemented. The age of RIA's has been here for a long time, and this was one of the MAJOR UI problems of early adopters. You would think that those that make RIA's their business would get it right...
I wish I had some idea what the heck you are talking about. What is the "Up to x in y" link?? I haven't seen that.
What is an RIA????

Firefox was a good, but now it's slow and when I search google I have to refresh the page when I click the back button. This is driving me to other browsers.

When searching in goole, If I click on a link and want to go back a page firefox does not load the previous google search without refreshing the page. Because I use google frequently this is very annoying. Firefox has also been freezing and crashing most frequently of any of the other browsers that I have been driven to use. I'm not sure why I should keep it on my computer at this point.

Regarding the Google results page blanking out when you go back, this occurs when using a combination of three settings, which may be fairly common:
* Zoom level higher than two steps (120%; the newest versions of Windows apparently default to 125%, which Firefox detects and adopts)
* Google search set to instant prediction results (default on Google search, but can be disabled in Search settings, see [https://support.google.com/websearch/answer/186610 Google Instant Search Help])
* Opening results in the same tab, then using the Back button to return to the results page (default on Google search, but can be changed in Search settings to open results in a new window/tab, see [https://support.google.com/websearch/answer/425 Google Search Help])
Firefox's cache feature attempts to maximize speed for forward and back actions by storing the last rendering of the page. Something about the instant prediction results ''with zoom'' is causing Firefox to briefly display the results and then they blank out and you have to reload the page to get them back. The mystery is why this only occurs (so far as I have heard) on Google? Is one of Google's scripts blanking out the page? Does Google care that it's messing up Firefox users?
For now, if you do not want to or cannot change any one of the three factors needed to experience this problem, you can disable the storage of the last rendering of the page. Then Firefox will skip the shortcut and lay it out fresh, which is known to work. As noted in earlier posts, you make this change using the about:config preferences editor.
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''sess''' and pause while the list is filtered.
(3) Double-click the '''browser.sessionhistory.max_total_viewers''' preference and change it to 0 (that's a zero).
This thread has a lengthy discussion: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/970863 When I go back to Google search results page, it takes me to a blank Google screen].

How to go to previous page in windows phone 8 when back button is pressed

I have a home page or landing page in my windows phone c# based app where user enters login details and upon successful login user is redirected to page2 . Here the user will see a list box with few items . Upon selecting an item from this list box a new
page called "Threadx" opens.(where x is the each page that opens upon clicking the x item in the list box)
While user is on this Thread page "Threadx" he may receive the toast notifications and the thread gets updated with new replies or answers on that thread.
But When user clicks on back button the "ThreadX" page doesn't get closed and instead it goes to its previous state where it has less number of messages , and so on until the app gets closed.
protected override void OnNavigatedTo(NavigationEventArgs e)
base.OnNavigatedTo(e);
if (e.NavigationMode == NavigationMode.Back)
return;
I would like to know if this "Threadx" page can be closed upon clicking back button without affecting other "Threadx+1","Threadx+2"..."Threadx+n" pages.
Any help would be really appreciated.

you don't need to navigate explicitly. Just clear the back stack till your specific page and say goback. below is the code you can use.
protected override void OnBackKeyPress(System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs e)
e.cancel=true;
RemoveBackStackTillSpecificPage("page2.xaml");
GoBack();
public static void RemoveBackStackTillSpecificPage(string pageName)
PhoneApplicationFrame frame = Application.Current.RootVisual as PhoneApplicationFrame;
var previousPage = frame.BackStack.FirstOrDefault();
if (previousPage != null && previousPage.Source != null)
while (!previousPage.Source.ToString().Contains(pageName))
frame.RemoveBackEntry();
previousPage = frame.BackStack.FirstOrDefault();
public static void GoBack()
PhoneApplicationFrame frame = Application.Current.RootVisual as PhoneApplicationFrame;
LastPageUri = frame.Source;
frame.GoBack();

Change in back button behavior

We are upgrading from ColdFusion 9 to ColdFusion 11. We noticed a change in back button behavior. On pages running CF 9 the back button works, but on pages running CF 11, when clicking the back button, we get a browser "confirm form resubmission" message. Since it is the same browser, it is clearly a change in ColdFusion. Does anyone know when the change was made? Is there a setting that controls the behavior?
Thank you,
David

We should ignore the difference in Coldfusion version for a moment. It might just be that the previous behaviour was incorrect and what you now observe, with CF11, is the correct behaviour.
A form-resubmit warning is essential. In fact, it can even be vital in certain circumstances. It is telling you that someone, some process or some thread has attempted to resubmit a form.
In your case, clicking the back button apparently refreshes the action page of the form. This is analogous, in business terms, to repeating an order that has already been placed. The related validation code, queries, etc. will run once again. Obviously an unwelcome situation.

Using the Safari Back button to navigate?

Why is it when I'm navigating the Support communities and I use the Safari back button it always goes to the top of the list and not to the list that I have already expanded. It gets pretty annoying to have to keep expanding the topic list to get back to were a left off.

Every "List" you see is sorted by activity - latest first. If you navigate away, then back, you are reloading the page with a new set of activity.
If you wish to use a list as a "Home Base" after using "Load More", COMMAND > Click the link (Title?) to open the thread in a new TAB. when finished, close the TAB and you will see your Home Base as you left it - likely with the thread you chose Underlined

Back button is premanently greyed-out and non-functional

I have tried all of the suggested fixes: disabling add-ons and extensions, deleting and re-installing the program, etc... but the back button remains non-functional, even on safe mode and after the last few updates. I cannot use the browser until this problem is fixed, and will continue to use Chrome until it is (even though I hate it and really miss Firefox). Funny thing is, it only happens on my Macbook Pro, running the latest version of Snow Leopard... it doesn't happen on my i7 iMac, running the same version of Snow Leopard.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, and have a great day,
-Jim

Hi,
Check the Font AppleGothic.ttf is active and validates using the Font Book app.
if you have to change anything restart the Mac.
If this is not the issue go to ~/Library/Preferences and find com.apple.ichat.plist and Drag it to the Trash and then restart Messages.
The above reply in another thread solved my issue! Namely that my apple gothic font was disabled, breaking the entire Messages app.

Forum bug: Browser Back button doesn't work

You have to press Back twice to go from a message thread back to the forum main page.
System: Windows 7, Browser: Firefox 16.0.2

Original topic http://forums.adobe.com/thread/988260
There was also a topic recently where John C. explained why this occurs, and why this cannot be fixed, but I cannot find that topic now.
For me this is one of the most annoying bugs on the Internet ever! If you spend a lot of time in the Adobe forums, you start to automatically double-click the back button. Then when you go somewhere else, your fingers continue double-clicking, with quite idiotic results!
Another side effect of that bug is that after you double-backed, the browser's forward button disappears. This can also be quite annoying if you just quickly went back to check something, then want to go forward where you came from.

Back Button in Safari 3.1.2

I just recently got a new MacBook Pro, after my old computer died. I had been using the original Safari browser on it, and never had any problems.
In Safari 3.1.2, about once every ten times I click the back button, it rockets me back two pages instead of just one.
That's about my only qualm, but wasn't sure where to voice it.
Any ideas on how to fix it?

Hi Rachel, My Double-Click Speed is set to two notches below fast. I'm still using the mouse that came with my eMac, so it's not a third party issue.
I've developed other bugs too. So I'm seriously thinking about just buying an iMac and forgo some puzzling and frustrating things going on inside my poor little eMac.
When I called Apple Support on the mouse issue, they suggested an Archive & Install, which I did. That didn't fix the glitch. Since then, Text Edit opens every time I restart my eMac with this -
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">

<string>fr</string>
<key>LprojRevisionLevel</key>
<string>1</string>
<key>LprojVersion</key>
<string>220.1</string>
</dict>
</plist>
I don't have a clue what this is. I suspect it is Unix code, but can't figure out what it is related to.
I also lost, among other things, Printer Drivers. The driver for my Brother HL-2040 reinstalled in a snap and it is functioning fine. However, I cannot find the Kodak Printer Dock Series 3 driver in Printer Setup Utility after many uninstalls and installations.
Back in February, I started to have kernel panics. I scanned my disk and found over 100 bad blocks. I backed up my system to an external HDD, zeroed out my disk and reinstalled my system. About 6-7 weeks ago, I had a single kernel panic and none since. Taken together, all of this make me think that it is time to move on and get an iMac.
My apologies for hijacking this thread.

How to disable or handle the back button in JSF 1.2

I am using modal windows and I want to disable the 'BackSpace' (keyboard button). if user clicks on the back button I want to stay on the current page.
Any tutorial or any help how to solve this?

Cannot click back button on Internet Explorer,

Dear Sir,
In content Management of EP6 SP14, KM content we cannot click "back button" in IE menu. if we click back , it will show the error.
How to solve this problem.
Thank you and best regards,
Vimol

Hi Vimol,
you can not solve this problem. The browser functions 'back', 'forward' and 'refresh' do not work properly on SAP EP 6. That's why you find the navigation links and the portal history in the portal header.
There is a feature called 'External facing portal' or 'EFP' that solves your issue by rendering one HTML file for every portal page. But you'll have some restrictions concerning business packages, KM and collaboration when using EFP.
There are a lot of threads in SDN about EFP, but here is an entry point:

Please be aware that EFP comes with NW2004s SPS6

Back Button for Custom Search Component CRM 7.0 Webui

Hi Guys,
I have developed Zworklistsearch component (WEBUI) for the service order header and item level search.
The component will replace standard worklist search in the worklist Menu (Standard component CRM_BT_TRANSINB).
The Component is having following parts
1. Search option (Selection box with option header level search and item level search)
The search option is binded to the component controller. When the search is loaded the default search type is header.
2. Search view fields
BOL objects for both item level and header level search has been created. However both the search views are referring to the same Z structure.
When the search is loaded default search view is header. The search view is loaded based on the search type selection by triggering outbound plug.
Both the search views are binded to the same component controller
3. Saved Search
Used standard Component SavedSearchRegistration.
4. Result view
Both item and header result views BOL objects are created.
The zworklistsearch object has been replaced with the standard transaction inbox search. However, the problem is with the navigation.
In case of header search type when I navigate to the service order from the header result view and when I hit back button the search view selection is retained.
However, in case of Item search type when I navigate to the service order or service order item and when I hit back button the search view selection is not retained.
The search view loaded on the component is the header search view.
Also when I execute the saved search, Component is opened in a new window (not in the worklist window). And If I navigate to the service order and hit back button, the worklist view is not displayed.

Back buttons and required fields...how to implement?

Hello
I would like some thoughts on the best approach to the following problem please.
-You have a wizard, lets say made up of 2 pages.
-Page 2 has some required fields.
-User goes from page 1 to page 2 then wants to return to page 1 for whatever reason.
-(Assuming they havent filled in the required components), what is the best way to let the user navigate back to page 1, without the system kicking in its required fields warnings etc..
One option I have thought of is populating the fields myself, but this feels like a hack.
Second option could be to edit the required=#{} of the required components when the back button is pressed?
Any thoughts?
JC.

Good tip.
ok, back to the main thread. immediate = true will result in any data the user entered being forgotten. The solution does by-pass the required rules, so its a mini result.
Tomahawk does have a stateSave component.
<t:saveState id="save" value="#{bean.xxx}" />
And a JavaScipt listener component.. I'm thinking both or one of these could be used to remember/store the state..
If anyone has any other solutions then please post.
