Hi all just reading this thread I use Mozilla and it has been a problem that I have noticed since the familysearch site was altered. Saying that though, you can back button and your search criteria is still there - sometimes. I always use the open other page system. I may at times have over 40 pages open but it works for me.

Hi Carol > I use Mozilla and it has been a problem that I have noticed since the > familysearch site was altered. I use IE with the correct buttons and find no problem, its just a habit thing that you need to break <g> I tried Mozilla, it worked every time I tried familysearch but could not justify the use of another browser just for that as I have no problem with anything else. > I always use the open other page system.
