Back button doesn't work once photo has been opened.

[Olivexo]

If there's a photo in a thread and I open it to have a look then push the 'x' the back button no longer works to go back to the main page.

This has been happening to me for ages (probably ever since you could post photos on threads); I've found that clicking on the back button again (and maybe again!) it does take you back.

You have to press the 'back' button twice - once to take you back to when the pic was not open & again to take you back to where you were before.

Yes, it's what magimed says.

The more photos you look at, the more times you have to press the back button.

Oooh thanks for solving that mystery all. It's these idiosyncrasies that makes Mumsnet such a fun site to be on.

KateSMumsnet, I believe there was a thread on Site Stuff about this a while back?
