I am not sure if it is just me and my browser configuration, or something has really changed. It seems that I have to click on the back/forward button more than once to get them to work. Anyone else have this problem? I know, it isn't world hunger, and it isn't that bothersome, but I find myself sitting and waiting to go forward or back then realizing, I am just waiting.

Me too... I though it was just my IE 7, but nope. I just now fiddled a little and noticed that for some reason, as I navigate the site, it isn't recording in IE's page history. Other sites are being tracked page by page as I navigate. Mysterious...

Well at least I am not crazy. It is happening only on this site and we haven't upgraded our browsers at work yet.

You're surfing a sailing site at work???

Maybe you should report the problem to your Tech Support.

Now I'm in Google Chrome, haven't entered any data into any pages, and when I clicked Back, I got the following message:

<blockquote id="quote">quote:<hr height="1" noshade id="quote">Confirm Form Resubmission

This web page requires data that you entered earlier in order to be properly displayed. You can send this data again, but by doing so you will repeat any action this page previously performed. Press Reload to resend that data and display this page.<hr height="1" noshade id="quote"></blockquote id="quote">

Could that be a clue?

that error you got Dave might easily be from the login (whether you entered it or not) and is very similar to a back button or refresh error that you can get on most sites. I don't htink it is telling.

It very well might be caused by an ad that isn't loading correctly.

It started this past weekend, both at home and at work, on this site only. I have to hit the back button twice. IE 7 running on XP SP3.

Yup--not getting that message now... Chrome is recording my page history properly, while IE7 is not (for this site only).

No problems with firefox or with sp3 for xp. Occasionally have trouble getting on to the site, I imagine that's just that too many people are ..... trying to get on the site.

I recall Paul (BritinUSA) saying he was testing with Chrome... maybe he twiddled something late last week?

Paul??

(I still find it curious that IE7's page history doesn't show my navigation within the site.)

been having that issue at random sites, sometimes even two is not enough if the page re-loads on the first "back". I have to use the pulldown to click 3 pages ago. No problem with FFox but I have to use IE at work since so many stuff is tied to MS security. BTW, just started using Vista at home, filled me with an urge to hit gates on the head with a dead salmon.

Using IE7 in Vista SP1 on my laptop and this issue is real. If you visit any on our site that has ads on it, then the back button will not work first time but does the second.

I did some research and it is definitely the google/amazon ads/search feature.

I temporarily deleted all three of those features in the forum and the back button single click worked fine. But on the other pages (owners list etc.) the backbutton needed two clicks.

After putting them back the issue reappeared.

I'll narrow it down later to possibly 1 of the three items over there (search, google ads, amazon ads)

This particularly distrubs me because of the extra unneeded click.

I got a message about a week ago that Microsoft upgrades were available for my computer. Ever since I did the upgrade I have noticed this "double click" issue on my IE in whatever site I have been in. It made me angry. I down-loaded Chrome yesterday. No more double click issues.
