Deactivate the back button when i logout
I am creating webpage with login / logout. How to deactivate the back button when i logout. and clear cookies
There is a hard fix for this...but i don't whether this is a current approach..
Put the javascript in the head of the page
history.go(1);
This virtually disables the back button..i.e when you click the back button it immediately redirects to the present page..

Why do google search results reset to match the search bar terms when i use the back button?
Since the update to FF 23, the list of Google search results clears and the on-page search box is reset to match the address bar search box when I hit the back button to re-view the results list after checking a result.
To see this issue for yourself, set your search provider to Google and make sure Instant is on. Type a search term into the search bar and press enter. A google page appears with your results list. Now, change your search terms or conduct a new search directly from the google page (without using the FF search bar). Click on the first result in the search list, then click the back button to return to the search results so you can check a differest result. As FF goes back to the google page, it will reset the on-page search box to match the FF search bar (although you were no longer on this search) and all search results will disappear, replaced by the message "Press enter to search". Pressing enter reconducts your old search, not the one you were on.
This is incredibly maddening since searching for something requires frequent use of the back button to check through the list of search results, and then frequently trying the search again with slightly different terms. Although it sounds like a Google issue, it did not occur on the old firefox and has me wanting to revert. I tried to revert to the old search function via the "keyword search" addon, but this did not fix my issue. Is there a way to force FF to go back to the actual google search page I was just on instead of conducting a new google search from the FF search box when I hit the back button?In Firefox 23 versions and later the keyword.URL pref is no longer supported and it is no longer possible to specify the search engine for the location bar via the keyword.URL pref.<br />
The search engine that is used on the location bar and on the about:home page is the search engine that is selected in the search Bar on the Navigation Toolbar.<br />
Current Firefox versions do not update the about:home home page until you refresh the page (future versions will do this automatically without a refresh) and that is what happens if you use the Back key.
You can install the Keyword Search extension to specify with search engine to use for the location bar and which search engine to use for the about:home page via the Options/Preferences windows of this extension, accessible via the about:addons page.

When using FF3.6 and making a Google search, when I click on a result and then go that web site, the Back button on the toolbar is grayed out and I cannot return to the search results without going to History. This does not happen all the time; about 1/2 of the time.
This problem is not limited to Google, but occurs with other sites as well.If you are talking about searches from - http://www.google.com/ - are you logged into a Google account all the time? If so, check your "Search Settings" from the "gear" in the upper-right corner of that Google search page and see if you have '''Open search results in a new browser window.''' check-marked, at the bottom of that preferences page. When that is check-marked and you have Tab options in Firefox set to '''Open new windows in a new tab instead''', you will get search results always opening in a new tab instead of the same tab. As to why that works different for "sponsored links" I don't know, I haven't seen the "sponsored links" for years now, I have a GM script that blocks those advertisements.

After doing a Google search, I click on a link and go to the searched web page. When I go back to the Google page using the back button the links I originally clicked on no longer show as "greyed out". Any idea what is going on with the browser?
Type '''about:config''' in the Location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key. When you see a warning, click '''I'll be careful, I promise!''' button.
* Preferences that have been modified are shown as '''bold (user set)'''.
* Preferences can be '''Reset to the default''' or changed via the right-click context menu.
-> In the '''Filter bar''', type '''browser.sessionhistory.max_entries'''
* Right click the preference '''browser.sessionhistory.max_entries''' and click '''Modify'''
* Change value from 0 to whatever you want over 0 (Default value is 50)
* click OK
-> Close the '''about:config''' tab and then Restart Firefox.

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).

Sometimes when using the Google search engine, after using the Back button in the Firefox 4.0.1 browser, I am no longer able to click in the Google search box.
This problems has been occurring on two different machines over the last two days.I think this may not be a browser problem but rather a Google problem.
I am getting the same problem with the Google Chrome browser. -

Love Firefox but it's annoying that if I'm using a search engine (I use lots of subscription legal search databases), when I press the back button all the data I entered in the search boxes has disappeared. I'm sure Firefox didn't use to do that?
Please do the following.<br><br>
#Click the Firefox button, go to '''Options '''| '''Options''' | '''Privacy'''.<br><br>
#In the dropdown menu at the top, change it to "'''Use custom settings for history'''"<br><br>
#Checkmark the option: "'''Remember Search and Form history'''".<br><br>
#Remove the checkmark from: "'''Clear history when Firefox closes'''". -

When I have multiple tabs open I have to double click the back button. Is this normal?
Running Windows XP Professional all latest updates. I can go back to previous page by closing current tab or by clicking twice on the back button. If I have no tabs open I can go back by clicking the back button once.
Nope, that isn't normal.
Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode?<br/> ''A troubleshooting mode.''<br />
You can open the Firefox 4.0 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut. Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut to open it again.''

Why does Safari refresh the page when using the back button?
Safari didn't use to do this.
Even on these forums, when you hit the back button to go back exactly where you were at, if there are new posts, the entire page may have changed. I knew exactly the next post I wanted to look at before the page was refreshed. Now, I can't even find the post I wanted to read unless I scroll through the entire list again.
I need to be able to go back to the page I was just on and not have it refresh.
I need to go back exactly where I was.
Safari can't even go back properly as it wants to go back near the top of the last page I was on.
I need it to go back exactly where I was at.
I have no idea what the engineers are thinking about this one.
FireFox works properly when going back to the prior page.
I have long lists on pages I work with.
For example:
1. through 1,000.
If I am on reference number 500 on the previous page, when I hit back, it goes all the way back up to around 20 in the list.
I have to then scroll manually page down to 500 where I was at.
This is tedious, cumbersome and unnessesary.
Safari was much better before it was updated to this horrible behavior.
I don't know of any preferences you can change to change this odd behavior.
Anyone know of anyway to stop this horrible behavior in Safari?
This is like reading a book, but when you go back a page, the entire page may have changed and I have no idea where I was at.
Pretty $iss poor in my opinion.Yes, that is correct.
However, you can also use the mouse or trackpad to swipe back a page and it still refreshes the last page.
Safari never did this back in Snow Leopard and maybe some versions of Safari in Lion.
However, Safari in Mountain Lion always does this.
It is very cumbersome using the "open link in new window" or "open link in new tab".
It was much better just being able to click the back button or swiping to get back exactly where you were on the prior page.
Hopefully more people will send Apple feedback on this.
Thanks for sharing.
