Trapt Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 Anyone know why or if it is just a characteristic of the www.enbdatabase.com that when you click the back arrow that you get an error and you have to load your search all over again? Is it a browser setting that I have or is it just the web site? Sometimes I have to go back and forth a few times, checking locations of components or locations of drops and using the back arrow is very handy.

TooTall Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 I noticed that too. What I do now is right-click and tell my browser to open the item I want in a new window. And at every "fork" in my search I do the same, then close the windows as I finish what I am looking at. TooTall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuulishone Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 This occurs on EnBArsenal.com, EnBDatabase.net-7.org and Net-7.org itself as well. In all cases it seems like the form submits are using only POST type, as well as non-cacheable pages. The combination causes the pages to come up as needing to be resubmitted. Realistically, this is easily solved, but that's up to the developers of the sites to decide it's something they want to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fast88fox Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 Use the return to search button. Better then starting over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotterdoos Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 I've been using Enbarsenal and just click on the search results with a middle click, bringing them up in a new tab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a bug, it's default behavior for pages that use form submits and the POST method. On EnBArsenal and EnBDB tho, there's absolutely no reason to use the POST method. They could accomplish what they want simply with a GET request and be done with it. It would allow forward/back to work as expected, and allow searches to be saved/recalled from your browser history. Why they chose to use POST along with non-cacheable pages? You'd have to ask them if there's a specific reason for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
