Unable to go 'Back' to Search results

Post by nigelgiddings »

Not sure if I am being thick but when I do a search I tend to read a thread and then use the @back' button in IE6 to return to the search results. I find it is the easiest way to look through the many matches you typically get.

However, on this board I get 'Page hase expired' rather than the search list... is this intentional, am I doing something wrong, am I the only one ?

The search is not added as part of the URL so using the back button will not work.
You can hold down the shift key when you click a link and it will open in a new window.

I'm on FireFox and it works fine for me but in IE I have to hit F5 to refresh the page. I don't know that there is a lot I can do about it I'm afraid.
