Backward navigation with the browser does not update views #93

First I navigate between several chapters (or pages in page mode) of a document served through TEI Publisher (e.g. the documenation at https://teipublisher.com/exist/apps/tei-publisher/doc/documentation.xml ) to establish a history in the same document. When I navigate backwards with the browser button, the parameter id in the URL will be updated but the shown content will remain. A full refresh gets the right content.

This can result in users sharing a wrong URL with someone else or losing the original position after following a link and wanting to navigate back.

This issue can be observed on several browsers like Firefox, Chrome, Safari and with several versions of the TEI Publisher components (quickly checked with 1.36.2 locally too).

Thank you @rfbaumgartner, this is a known issue and the upcoming Publisher 8 release will include some redesign to fix it as well as other measures to obtain bookmarkable URLs etc.
