Odd UI Behavior

[Adrian Crum-2]

Using the latest trunk:

1. Log into the Example component as admin
2. Click the Help link (? in upper right corner)
3. Close the Help popup window
4. Click the language (or locale) link and change the locale
5. The main screen becomes the previous Help page
6. Navigate back to Example main page (use browser history or bookmark)
7. Click the collapse header button
8. The main screen becomes the previous Help page

Firefox 3.6.

Hi Adrian,

this is caused by the go-home and go-last functionality in the
requestmanager. The 'home' and 'last' requests are kept but only work
properly when only one screen is open. If multiple screens are open the
wrong 'last' and/or wrong 'home' request will be requested again.

In your example when the locale is selected the last request will be
re-requested, in this case the help screen because it was the last
request.

I do not have a good solution for that.

Regards,
Hans

Step #6 should fix that.

Also has anybody ever to test the behavior with multiple tabs open and swiching from one to another?
I have this to test for near one year but did to take the time to do it yet. I think I saw some odd behaviors in this case too.
