Have to click back button multiple times

I have seen same problem posted, but no resolution that has worked for me. On some sites, once I click on a link (once), I have to click the back button 2-3 times to get back to the page I was originally on. If I right click on the back button, I see that 2-3 copies of the linked page are in the back button history. This happens a lot on cbsnews.com. If I click on a photo list on that site, it will load 2-3 copies of every single picture that I look at. I have tried running firefox in safe mode, but the same thing happens. If I visit the site using Chrome, it does not happen. This has been happening since version 29.0; I am currently running 31.0 for windows (8.1).

Hi there. I avoid that issue by clicking the link I want to check and
selecting '''open new tab / window..''' This way the page I left will
still be waiting for me.
Also, right click the back arrow and choose from the menu.

  • How do I stop firefox from refreshing pages constantly? I have to click "back" dozens of times if I'm on a page for more than 15 seconds.

    every page on every open tab refreshes every 30 seconds and each time it is saved in my cache. If I want to go back to a previous page, I have to click back once for every 30 seconds I was on the current page. Very annoying!! It just started doing this recently and I don't know why. I did reset the about:config to "0", but that didn't help.

  • When a click a button multiple times it opens multiple windows instead of only one. Is this a bug in Firefox?

    If i click a link multiple times, it should open only a window(login popup window), but it opens multiple windows.
    This does not happened on any other browser(IE, Chrome, Safari, Opera).<br />
    If this helps i'm using a jquery plugin popupwindow( http://rip747.github.com/popupwindow/ ).

  • Clicking Back button twice in IE7 to get previos page in our WL portal.

    Hello,
    we are developing weblogic portal application.
    And have noticed that on the all our pages(we have JPF and JSR portlets) we have to click Back button twice in Internet Explorer 7 to get previous page.
    We haven't got such issue when we use FireFox, Opera or Chrome, please advice, what we can do to fix this issue.
    Thank you very much!

    Thank you, deepshet
    Now I have discovered that weblogic generates url with fragment identifier at the second step.
    When I call page for example News_page from previous page Main_page, I use the following link
    http://localhost:7001/MyPortal/appmanager/TestPortal/TestDesktop?_nfpb=true&_pageLabel=News_page
    after loading (about 1-2 seconds) to url addeds fragment identifier *#wlp_news_page*, so the resulting page will be
    http://localhost:7001/MyPortal/appmanager/TestPortal/TestDesktop?_nfpb=true&_pageLabel=News_page*#wlp_news_page*
    At this moment when I click back button in IE I will get
    http://localhost:7001/MyPortal/appmanager/TestPortal/TestDesktop?_nfpb=true&_pageLabel=News_page
    for the first time.
    And after my second click I will be returned to Main_page.
    Please advice how can I avoid such behaviour?Is it possible to turn off fragment identifiers on portal?
    Thanks

  • I have attempted to install iTunes multiple times but to no avail. I have installed every file, and followed every instruction on the support pages. I click download, and it takes me directly to the "Thank You for Downloading" page without doing anything.

    I have attempted to install iTunes multiple times but to no avail. I have installed every file, and followed every instruction on the support pages. I click download, and it takes me directly to the "Thank You for Downloading" page without doing anything. I am running it on FireFox, and I have tried with Internet Explorer, neither have worked. I have been trying to do this for weeks now, and I am getting majorly frustrated. Please, help.

    Perhaps try downloading and saving a copy of the installer to a different PC. (If you're on a 32-bit Windows system, try to download on a different 32-bit Windows system.) Copy the iTunesSetup.exe installer to an external hard-drive, or a large-enough thumb drive or burn it to a CD-R. Carry the installer back to your PC, copy the installer to your hard drive. (Don't run the install from the ExHD, thumb or CD-R.) Start the install by doubleclicking the iTunesSetup.exe file.

  • Help - HP Pavilion a6030.uk desktop. Have to press the power button multiple times to start up?

    Hi, 
    I have a HP desktop computer. The model is HP Pavilion a6030.uk, Opertating system: windows vista.
    My computer has had no problem at all until yesterday for some reason i  had to push the power button multiple times to start it until it finally turned on and did the normal start up. Such as i would press the power button as normal to start it, but all of a sudden, it would turn off after about 2 seconds, and so I would press the power button several times and each time it would not start up and turn off, so the power button would be pressed again until it would finally turn on and start up and run as normal and seems to work fine. And it was the same today, i pressed the power button mutiple times (e.g. 6 times) until it finally started as normal.
    As im not very knowledgeable or very computer/technology savvy wise in this area, please will someone help me and give me some advice/help to fix/solve this.
    Thankyou for taking time to read this and any help would be much appreciated to resolving this problem.

    I get a message stating MSVCR80.dll is missing. How to fix? I have removed and re-installed multiple times.

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.

  • Can I have the same printer installed multiple times under different names?

    On WIndows I have the same printer installed multiple times
    All using the same driver
    I have a Canon printer that has a rear tray and a bottom tray
    So, I will have one printer that prints to the rear and the other to the bottom
    Other printers (the same one) will be set so that they print in high quality and in duplex for example
    I'll name the printers 1.Canon 2.Canon 3.Canon etc
    So, when I go to print, I just hit a number on the keyboard and the printer I want is selected
    Can I do the same on my laptop?
    Thanks
    Omar

    Back Up - that's in case things go wrong.
    In the case you cite:
    You have
    Mother
    Mother Maiden Name
    as Faces, right?
    In the Corkboard view click on Mother Maiden Name and delete the 'Maiden Name'.
    It will disappear and all the photos will be in the Mother face.
    Note that 'Mother' and 'Mother ' (that is, with a trailing space) are not the same.
    You can  also just edit the name 'Mother Maiden Name' to 'Mother'
    As for photos staying in manual sort, I can only say that mine do. But as I've no idea what troubleshooting steps you've used.

  • 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:
    <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/43/13fd52a5732ba9e10000000a1553f6/frameset.htm">Implementing an external facing portal</a>
    Please be aware that EFP comes with NW2004s SPS6

    }The problem with even attempting to do this is that with today's browser capabilities, users can optionally choose to jump to a particular page in the browser history and this may not necessarily be the most recent page. In this case, you would also want to invalidate the user's session after already having been there (whatever page that may be). Then you have situations when the user may wish to jump back in history to external pages they were visiting before they reached your own site's pages. Then what happens when they start clicking forward, forward, etc... from there? This is why I prefer writing Swing Clients as alternatives to browser applications. There are soo many possible ways break web applications made for standard web browsers both maliciously and simply by accident or irregular user patterns. Regardless, this servlet would work based on the assumption that all the user(s) would "ever" do aside from moving logically forward is clicking on the browser's "back" button.

  • Why must I click the button two times to update the data?

    Dear All,
    I have written a simple vi about event case. I have found that I must to click the button two times to updata the data. I don't know why.
    And I can't use the stop button to stop the vi.
    Could you tell me the reason?
    Thank you very much.

    event case.vi ‏42 KB

    Hi,
    1 : you have a "timeout case" but no timeout linked, so you lose the advantage of the event structure !
    2 : make a event for "stop" on value change
    3 : its normal, because le control terminals were out of the event struct, run it in high light mode you'll understand
    Remark : instead of having to clic a boolean to refresh the indicators, why don't you make a "value change event" directly on the control ?
    I modified your VI following step 1,2,3 above
    Hope this helps
