Foxytab changing how back button works #654

Open Jellie06 opened 3 months ago

Jellie06 commented 3 months ago

Basically every time I go back a page it goes back to the last website I was on. Ignoring duckduckgo searches.

For example say I'm on YouTube and see a fancy keyboard and then search DuckDuckGo for the keyboard then click on Amazon to purchase it but decide I can probably find it cheaper on another site, so click the back button to return to that DuckDuckGo search, it instead takes me straight to YouTube.

I've had to disable Foxytab for days

FoxyTab doesn't alter history so it shouldn't affect the back button.

Are you using container rules?

Jellie06 commented 3 months ago

I'm not. I can't understand why it would affect it either but I've tested every other extension I own. It's definitely Foxytab

erosman commented 3 months ago

Is that the case with any webpage or only DuckDuckGo?

Can you give me a reproducible example?

Jellie06 commented 3 months ago

Only DuckDuckGo yes. Not Google etc

It happens with every site I go on. I usually test with Amazon. Searching from the Firefox home tab > duckduckgo search for keyboards > Amazon. If you want a specific URL

Jellie06 commented 3 months ago

I can record a video of it if you want

If that only happens with one site in a specific order, then it might be related to the JavaScript on that particular site. If it was happening with every site, it would have been different.

I tested it now

Jellie06 commented 3 months ago

It's happening with most sites. How peculiar. Out of curiosity what Firefox version are you using? I'm on the latest installment of Firefox Nightly (132.0a1). I just tried it on a normal Firefox installation and it's working as intended.

erosman commented 3 months ago

I am also on the latest Nightly.

Strange. I will try recreate the issue on my other laptop when I get home
