using back button when searching
a4gom - 17/7/08 at 02:51 PM

When I do a search, have a look at one of the results then click the back button to return to the search results I always get a message saying something about "you are trying to ... postdata... click ok or cancel", if I click cancel nowt happens just stay on the same page, if I click ok I'm back to the blank search input page .
I know I can get round it by opening each result in a new tab but sometimes I forget and its kin annoying.
Is it me, something i'm doing or is it like this for everyone? It doesn't happen on the other forums I visit.

Works fine here, If you go back you get a 'warning page has expired' - then hit refresh and click 'retry' when the box pops up.

I right click on the submit and select 'Open link in new window'

That way when i want to go back i just close that one off and the search results are still there

I'm using Mozilla BTW.

No, it isn't just you, I get the same thing too.

If you have a mouse with a scroll wheel that also acts as a middle button by pressing on it you can use that on the links and it will open stratight into a new tab in IE7.
