Description Frank Green, Jr. 2008-05-18 17:41:49 UTC
Back/forward buttons and location bar not updated when navigating to another page. This results in location bar retaining not-always-properly-typed-in url and back/forward buttons not being properly enabled (i.e., the browser won't allow for user to click back when user should be able to do so). Problem partially mitigated by switching to a new tab; back/forward buttons are fixed, but location bar retains same information.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
Plugins installed: Adblock plus 0.7.5.4, distrust 0.8, flashblock 1.5.6, and flashgot 0.9.9
1. Open browser, type "www.fark.com"
2. Type "slashdot.org" into location bar
3. "slashdot.org" stays in location bar rather than being replaced by "http://slashdot.org/", back button is disabled.
4. Type control-T, type control-W to close tab.
5. Back button enabled, location bar retains "slashdot.org"
6. Click back button, note that location bar retains "slashdot.org", forward button not enabled.

Do you have the same problems when not using these extensions?
