The back button goes back two pages instead of one

The back button takes me back multiple pages, especially on Facebook

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

  • IE Browser back button goes to two pages back

    I am not using JSPs, using a servlet ABSServlet to display the search page, after entering the search criteris I'm displaying a report page. The report page has a button 'Save As Excel' which open the report in the Excel form. When I click on this button browser asks 'Open' or 'Save'. I clicked on 'Open'. It open the report in excel form in the same page. Now if I press the IE Browser back button it takes me to the Search page instead of the report page.
    Ideally it should go back to the Report page(preiosu page) if I click the back button and not to the previous to previous page. Can someone help?

    You cannot (practically) modify the function of the browser's back button...
    You can patch it though.
    Put in the intermediate (search) page something like
    <script language="Javascript"><!--
    function sendBack()
      wherefrom=history.forward(1); //only valid if the back button has been used. otherwise null
      length=wherefrom.length();//length of 'forward page's url'
      if (history.forward(1).substring(length-4)==".xls") //the back button has been press on a url ending .xls - back from a spreadsheet
        location.href=history.back(1); //go back once more from here
      else
        //this is if the back button was not used or if back button was used from a page that is not an excel spreadsheet;
        //if you write nothing here, the page just display as though this function were not here
    //--></script>
    <body onload="sendback()">Not really a Java solution, but should work.

  • The back button goes back 2 pages, when choosing a bookmark the item under it (on the desktop) is selected

    After upgrading to 3.6.11 The back button sometimes goes back 2 pages, The Bookmarks window just flashes when trying to open it, when it does stays open if an item is selected that item is not opened, the item beneath it on say, my home page is opened. I saw there were some Google related problems in your trouble shooting section, I got rid of the Google stuff but the problem remains.

    Your above posted system details show multiple Java Console extensions.<br />
    You can uninstall (remove) the Java Console extensions, you do not need them to run Java applets.

  • Why, since installing 4.0.1, does the back arrow take me back two pages instead of one most of the time?

    Since installing 4.0.1., I find that the back arrow takes me back two pages most of the time, forcing me to click again on the forward arrow to advance one page. This happens on all websites. I never had this problem before with any browser. It started with 4.0.1 and I have not added any plugins in a long time. My system is Windows XP.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • Safari back button goes back to Top Sites rather than search results

    When I launch Safari, it begins at the Top Sites page.  I use the unified search/URL bar to search something on Google.  I click on one of the results and decide that's not the answer I wanted so I hit the back arrow in Safari to go back to the search results, but Safari doesn't do that.  It skips the search I did and goes all the way back to Top Sites.  The Google search never happened as far as Safari is concerned.  What's going on?
    Details:
    Safari 6.0.4
    Mac OS X 10.8.3

    Do any search, either in the URL bar or by going to www.google.com (doesn't matter what you search for as the results are irrelevant). Once you're at the search results page, you'll see a cog wheel icon on the upper right. Looks like this:
    This is the search settings button. Click it and navigate down to "Search Settings". Once at this page, look halfway down to find the "Google Instant Predictions" section. Change the option to "Never show Instant Results." Scroll all the way down and save your changes.
    I'm betting with you... I think its the Focus on the User extension. Good luck.

  • When I try to buy any app or song from iTunes app or app store on iPhone 5 it seems to start the stops and goes back to baseline in a second or two

    When I try to buy any app or song from iTunes app or app store on iPhone 5 it seems to start the stops and goes back to baseline in a second or two.
    It did it with my old iPhone 4 in last month or so, and it I hoped it would go once I updated to new iPhone 5. The problem has transferred to new phone too.
    I can't sign in to iTunes account on iPhone. It takes the password then resets to baseline. No error message comes up. On the base computer (pc) it will allow me to sign up and buy songs, apps etc. I can then sync the phone and put them on it. It just won't let me buy direct from the .
    As there are no error messages I am at a loss what to do. I have updated the payment details on my account, and my husband has an iPhone 4 and has no such problems. We share the same wifi. I have tried with 3G as well as wifi, with no luck.
    I am pretty much out of ideas, and have tried searching forums but there is so much overlap between queries that I can't find a similar problem from someone else, but I am sure it exists!
    Can anyone please help me?
    Thanks in advance
    Sarah

    I figured it out!
    I read a solution for something that sounded similar.
    Anyone in similar position:
    Open iTunes app on iPhone, and pick an option from bottom, such as music. Then scroll down to bottom of page and where your iTunes ID is, press on it, and pick sign out.
    Then return to home screen, and double press home button and press and hold on first icon showing, until a minus symbol appears in the top left of icons present. Press on each minus symbol on each app in turn, until all app icons have disappeared. Then Restart the phone by pressing and hold the home button and the on/off/standby button at top of phone, until the apple symbol appears in centre of blank screen.
    Swipe to turn phone fully on and open settings and scroll down to iTunes and apps option and tap that. Pick sign in and put in your apple ID, it will accept it and then return to home screen and open iTunes a you'll find it works fine
    Simple really, but some like me won't think f this themselves!
    Hope that helps

  • Preventing the User from going back to the main page after logging out.

    Hi all,
    In my project I want to prevent the User from going back to the Main page, by clicking the back button of the browser, after the user has loggged out.I had invalidated the session so the user will not be able to do any operations, but he can vew the infos. I want to redirect to the login page if the user tries to go back using the back button after he has logged out.
    I tried the same in this forum after loging out. Surprisingly it is the same. I can browse through all the operations i did even after logging out from here.
    Is it not possible to do that in Servlets?Could somebody help?
    Thanks,
    Zach.

    Hi,
    You can use a servlet filter to do this , as it can interceptany request to your application you can decide to allow user access or not to any page/servlet.
    public class Test implements Filter{
         public void destroy() {
         public void doFilter(ServletRequest arg0, ServletResponse arg1, FilterChain arg2) throws IOException,
                   ServletException {
              System.out.println("filter");
              HttpServletRequest request = (HttpServletRequest) arg0;
              if(!request.getRequestURI().contains("index")){ // set condition that will be checked to verify if the user is logged in
                   System.out.println("redirecting ... ");
                   RequestDispatcher d = arg0.getRequestDispatcher("/index.jsp");
                   d.forward(arg0, arg1);
              arg2.doFilter(arg0, arg1);
         public void init(FilterConfig arg0) throws ServletException {
    }in you web.xml add :
    <filter>
              <filter-name>test</filter-name>
              <filter-class>test.Test</filter-class>
         </filter>
         <filter-mapping>
              <filter-name>test</filter-name>
              <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
         </filter-mapping>

    Send a bug report. And wait for an update.
    OR
    uninstall and re-instal the game all over.

    This crap just happened to me this morning where I was sent 90% data plan threshold warningfrom AT&T (while sleeping at 7:09am) then 5 minutes later getting the Overage data plan warning from AT&T.  This is all while I'm asleep right next to my phone plugged into a (non-Apple) dock on my clock radio.
    Android has a limiting feature, why can't the "smart" guys at Apple learn from this??

  • Disable/hide navigation Back button in particular overview page

    Hi All,
    I have to disable/hide navigational 'Back' button on Task overview page. I tried to achive this in WD_HISTORY mehtod but no luck.
    Please suggest me how to do this.
    Thanks,

    Hi Laxmana,
    I did the same thing as you suggested, by commenting the super class method we can just stop to go to previous page but not all the pages which are stored in back button history.
    My actual requirement is, back button should not be visible to user or should not function anything. User should not use back button to navigate away. user must use 'save and back' or 'save' buttons.
    Thanks,
    Nanaji

  • One day it just stopped focusing and the pictures are blurry.  If I switch it to the front camera it works well and looks like it should but when I turn it back it goes back to being out of focus and I can't figure out how to fix it?

    i installed ios 7.after  that my primary cam, one day it just stopped focusing and the pictures are blurry.  If I switch it to the front camera it works well and looks like it should but when I turn it back it goes back to being out of focus and I can't figure out how to fix it?

    This advice will sound like a joke or prank, but believe me it worked on my iPhone 5 and my daughter's.  The lens mechanism got stock on each of our iPhones.  We found a post on these message boards that said to hold the iPhone about 6 inches above a table or counter top and drop it so that it lands flat on it's back.  Now try the camera ...Fixed!  It has been more than six months now and neither of our iPhones have ever experienced the problem again.
