Why, when I'm reading a post in ST, and I click "back" in my browser, it hops back to the top of the page?

It didn't used to do that, I don't think. And it didn't do that on TT. It's like it refreshes on the back.

I'm confuzled.

- I don't have the old TT to confirm, but I think it has to do with the use of anchors (#) around or near the links? -- nm - kilboooo Oct 28, 10:49 2
  - Dunno. It might even have to do with the page being dynamically generated and sending no-cache signals. -- nm - Beryllium Oct 28, 10:53 1
    - I think you're right. There are many references to scroll position bugs in Firefox related to no-cache pages. Firefox users can install this -- (link) - kilboooo Oct 28, 10:58
