If I follow your instructions 1-3, the Previous button returns me to the way the tab was at step #1. This is not an error because the state of the tab before step #3 is the tab's history. And turning off JavaScript does not change the behavior. If I select a link to open in a new tab, however, then the history for that new tab is indeed empty and the Previous button is grayed out. -- David E. Ross <http://www.rossde.com/>.
