Lost in the flood... back button off page 1 still not fixed.

when browsing topics NOT on page one, the back button which SHOULD take you back to the forum list on the page where you last were (hence the name "back" button) STILL takes you back to page one, effectivly making it near impossible to read things scrolled off the front page and navigate to the next item.
jeez man, this is basic browser functionality!

this needs to be fixed.
OK... i see your problem... can't help you there Dave, 'cause i always open topics i'm interested in in a new tab.... i open several, read them one-by-one, answer if necessary – sometimes if it's been a while before i get to an already open topic, i reload the page to catch any new additions. As i go, i shut tabs and i'm back at the topic list, where i do a refresh by click on the breadcrumb.
It's probably also one of the reasons that the slowness is not crippling for me...as i'm going down the topic list opening topics in new tabs, the first few have already loaded. Where the slowness really hits is the original opening ad then hitting the Reply button and the Post... those take ages.
But Frames is the reason you can't go back to the previous page and always revert to Page one of the topics list. Short of redesigning the forum, i doubt that can be fixed.

  • In IE 8 there is a "recent pages" tab next the forward / back buttons. It helps us jump back & forth the sites. Is there similar feature in FF 6 ?

    In IE 8 there is a "recent pages" tab next the forward / back buttons. It helps us jump back & forth the sites directly. Is there a similar feature in FF 6 ?

    The arrow to open the tab history of the Back and Forward buttons has been removed in Firefox 4 and later.
    Use one of these methods to open the tab history list:
    * Right click on the Back or Forward button
    * Hold down the left mouse button on the enabled Back or Forward button until the list opens
    You can look at this extension:

  • Lost the forward/back button after updating and the home button how do I get back?

    Firefox updated to 7 and I lost all of my add ons including the home button and the forward/back button. I was able to get all of my add ons restored except the home button and the forward/back buttons. How do I get them back? Wish now that I had not updated.

    Make sure that you do not run Firefox in Full Screen mode with all toolbars hidden.
    * Press F11 to toggle full screen mode (Firefox/File > Full Screen)
    If the menu bar is hidden then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key, that should make the menu bar appear.
    Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
    * If items are missing then open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout" (Linux, Windows)
    * If a missing item is in the toolbar palette then drag it back from the Customize window on the toolbar
    * If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up.

  • 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

  • Form field validation: All required data lost when clicking browser-back-button!

    Hi folks,
    I have a big problem using the validation text  field components of Spry when the user must click the browser back button (or clicking a history.back()-Link) because he has  entered a wrong CAPTCHA-code!
    Right now, all the data - only in the required fields - not in the optional  fields!!! - is lost and the user has to enter all data once  again;-(
    Does anybody know why only the data in the  required fields is lost? Is there a nice workaround?
    I really  appreciate a quick answer:-)
    Kind regards from cloudy Germany
    Thomas

    rememberFormInputs('frmlogin', 'input-');
    'frmlogin' should be the id of page, not the name. so on your <form> tag, add the id="frmlogin"
    remove the
    // overload alert
    function alert(str) {
         var el = document.getElementById('alert');
         if (el) {
              el.value += str+"\r\n";
    Its really bad practice to overwrite the alert. and inside the rememberFormInputs remove these lines:
    alert('old value remembered: '+old_value);
    alert('setCookie: '+name + ' = '+value);
    and it should work

  • Put back the drop down bar for the forward/back buttons.

    There was a little bar next to the forward/back buttons that allowed you to see where you been and go back or forward a few pages when you need to. I WANT THAT BAR BACK! I am sick and tired of going through this every time firefox updates. ALSO, I've lost my personas (not that it really matters since you got rid of all the space the pictures were in), and I would like them back. I really wish you people would STOP fixing things that aren't broke and giving me so much grief trying to make it look like it and act like it did before.

    Cor-el, you rock! Brought back all the personas/themes that I lost. Now I just have to work on widening the area so I can see the pictures. :)

  • The browser back button is not working correctly when using the search funtion in ProBoards forums. Is there a known issue with ProBoards & FF?

    I have submitted a bug report to ProBoards, but they cannot duplicate the problem I am having, so I am submitting this here in hopes you can find a solution.
    At ProBoards Support and another PB forum while doing searches I found this problem, which continues with repeated testing over the past week or so:
    url: http://support.proboards.com/search
    1. enter perameters for the search (posts only by staff for the last 2 days)
    2. choose one of those post results & click on it (choose a post on page 14 and not on page 1 of the results)
    3. using the browser back button, attempt to return to the previous page of search results
    4. rather than being taken back to the search results with my parameters, the search parameters have been removed and the page show 1000 results of posts by everybody.
    I have tested this over and over again, disabling plugins, and nothing seems to alter the malfunctioning of the back button when I am doing this search function at ProBoards.
    I have tested it in Internet Explorer and find that in IE the browser back button works properly with ProBoards searches. I always get the result I expect, so it's a problem with how FF interfaces with ProBoards, I think.

    Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
    Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
    To clear cache and cookies do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
    #Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
    #Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
    #From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
    #Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
    Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.

  • Clicking on the Back button in web browser does not take you back properly

    When using Info View and drilling down through reports (using the InfoView Portal in the "View my documents" settings of User Preferences), if you have drilled down through several reports and then want to go back to the page you were viewing before you drilled down one more layer using the browsers BACK button takes you back a random number of pages - NOT back one page.
    Is there a fix or workaround for this?
    Thanks

    There are some big differences if using say a webi report.
    I just tested on XIR2 SP4 and back forward worked fine with CR drilldown, using the sample reports.
    Could be a report design issue or something wrong with your deployment, maybe even a browser setting (not sure as I don't work reporting issues too often).
    You can wait to see if someone else has run into this or open a message with support to have an engineer take a look.

  • Safari back button and page jump

    Hi. I'm using Safari 6.0.3 on MacBook Air.
    When I click the back button the previous page is reloaded fine. However, Safari does not jump down to the place on the page I was last. This is tiresome when dealing with long lists (e.g., ebay results pages). All other browsers I use do this. Any help? Thanks!

    Same thing with my 64GB WIFI/3G iPad after ios 4.2.1 update. However, with me, it is seemingly on a random basis 20-30% of the time.
    Google search---> search results----> view one of the search results----> back button----> EMPTY PAGE.
    However, hitting the reload icon in URL bar on the empty page brings back search results, so livable.

  • Can Firefox provide an option to keep the refresh button next to the forward/back buttons?

    When I first installed FF4 the refresh button was buried on the righthand side of the URL window. There were a number of complaints about that location.
    Then the button got moved next to the forward/back buttons. This made me quite happy.
    Today, I find it's again buried in the previous position.
    Can I get it back to where it is more accessible?

    # Control-click on a toolbar and select Customize, this will open the customize toolbar window
    # With that window on display you can drag and drop the refresh button and place it where you want

  • Not able to Enable the Custom Ribbon button On Pages in Sharepoint 2013

    Hi Team,
    Not able to Enable the Custom Ribbon button On Pages in SharePoint 2013. we have used the button edit properties section of the Pages.
    Same is working for Lists but not for Pages.
    Thanks,
    Shrikant

    Thanks for your reply.
    Right now my server is not working to get the code. will share you in some time.
    I am just thinking if page get checked out and my control is also present in the Edit properties section then do I need to specify something explicitly to enable the button. The same is working for Lists.

  • Since I've updated to iOS 6 I am unable to use the next/back buttons from Headphone for audio book chapters.

    Since I've updated from iOS 5 to iOS 6 I am unable to use the next/back buttons from Headphone for audio book chapters.
    This is working fine for albums but are broken for audio books.
    The back button refers always to the first chapter of the audio book (very annoying if you are in the middle of an audio book) and the nex button goes one level higher back to the selection of the audio book itself.
    In iOS 5.0 it was still possible to navigate throught the audio book chapters using these buttons.
    This still happens in iOS 6.1.
    Is this a known bug?
    Does any solution exist?
    Thx,
    Oliver

    To gdgmacguy your a f****** idiot for one I'm having the same problem as pennymar. And you tell me to quit whinning. You got more problems then the iOS 6 you did not answer my question nor the other 13 or whatever you replied to within a 30 min time frame. You must got nothing better to do then to harass people and to pretend you know something about apple products. Which you don't from what I've read the other advices you should have gave to other people. But you didn't you replied a question back to the people asking a question. So if your not gonna use these community forums the right way don't use them at all.

    In your email settings on the phone check to make sure it is set to receive emails on cellular network.  It's a feature you can turn off so your phone isn't constantly updating emails on the cell network, but if you are usually in a place with wifi and aren't concerned about going over your data allowance, you can turn it back on.
