Back button gone funny...

I'm using safari on an ipad and the last couple of days I need two presses of the back button to go back one page. Its only happening on MN, not on any other websites. Slightly irritating!

Sorry about this - I have no idea because I dont have an iPad
but I will find out from someone who does.

Right then, I have consulted with the techs

We don't control the back button on the browser.

What can happen is if someone follows a link down to a particular message on a page like the 'MNHQ has commented on this thread' links for example. Then pressing the back button takes you back to where you were but still on the same page. A second back button click then takes you to the previous page.

Does that make sense?
Sorry not to be able to wave a magic wand and make it better.

@LegArmpits

Strangely my DH is also having the same problem on Reddit using Android. Curiouser and curiouser.

Maybe the whole interweb is busted?

Hello

Sorry about this.

To clarify:

a) this is only happening on Mumsnet?
b) it's only happening on Kindles and iPads? (Apols if I've missed anyone)

PLEASE SHOUT if it's happening to you but either (or both of) a) and b) do not apply to you

Thanks

MACBOOK USERS - is it still happening?
