Back button behavior (esp. in Firefox) #74

What steps will reproduce the problem? / What is the expected output? What do 
you see instead?
(reported on behalf of another user) Using the browser's "back" button takes 
you back to the top 
of the page you last viewed, instead of to the point on the last page where you 
were at when you 
went to the next page.  Additionally, the last link followed (be it a thumbnail 
clicked or a facet 
clicked) is not indicated, either by a change in the font color or by having a 
light box drawn 
around it. 

What browser and operating system are you using?
FireFox (2.0.0.14) on Windows (XP SP2)

Please provide any additional information below.
 >> I tried this on Mac (10.5.3) with Safari (3.1.1), and the back button *did* take me back to the 
previous page location.  It did not indicate the link/button last followed, 
though.  (Not a big 
problem, IMHO, if I went back to the same location on the previous page; I 
think it's only an 
issue because his browser dumps him at top-of-page.)

 >> I also tried this on PC (XP SP2) with IE (7.0.6000.16674), and the back button also *did* take 
me back to the previous page location.  It did not indicate the link/button 
last followed, though.  

>> I also tried this on Mac (10.5.3) with Amaya (10.1), and the back button 
also *did* take me 
back to the previous page location.  It did not indicate the link/button last 
followed, though.  

>> I also tried this on Mac (10.5.3) with Firefox (3.1.1), and it performed 
just like Firefox on 
Windows — it did not take me back to the previous page location, and it did 
not indicate the 
link/button last followed.

As near as I can tell, this is a FF bug. It works in other browsers, and I know 
of no
trick in the HTML that affects this, and so would declare this part of the bug 
"Won't
Fix".

The indication of a recently visited page (I think this is what you want from 
"last
link followed") could be indicated with an alternate stylesheet setting for 
visited
links. Right now, we force them to look the same as other links. The last 
visited
indication of an outline around a link is also being suppressed, although we 
would
have to ensure enabling this did not mess up the layout.

Adjusting prio and milestone. Can consider changing the stylesheet when have 
time to
review the visual impact.
