    Problem using "back" function
    « on: November 17, 2006, 12:22:05 AM »
    When I'm browsing the internet, mainly on eBay, when I click on a specific auction and try to return to the listing page it won't bring the last page back. Usually after 2-3 clicks it will come back up but showing the page from 2-3 views before the page I was on. Very annoying. Any suggestions?
    Thank you,
    Blookah

    Have you tried Alt back arrow instead of the back button ? ?

    Or try out FireFox and tabbed browsing...very handy.

      Also, have you tried just the backspace key as it does the same as the back arrow?

        First of all I didn't know I was addressing Maud' Dib. This is Stilgar your trusty servant.! Anyway I have tried all your suggestions and I already use Firefox. Tabbed browsing isn't a solution because it's within the same website where this problem occurs. I can shift back to another web page no problem, but within eBay or various other shopping sites it is not stepping back to the page I was just on previous to that. See my problem?
