Is anyone else still having issues with the Back button behavior in IE? I reported this back in Flare 9, it was fixed in Flare10, then broken again in 10.2 and is still not working.
From a topic, click a link to go to another topic, then click Back in IE.
Click another link in that topic (or the same one, any link that takes you out of that file), then click Back.
You are returned to the startup topic, not the topic you were previously viewing.
It's driving me crazy! Have submitted bug report (again) but wondering if anyone has a workaround before I ship this Help file. Currently using tri-pane HTML5 output.

Re: Back button issues with Flare 11 and IE
I suspect this issue is related to the same issue you've reported in this post, which I replied to: viewtopic.php?f=9&t=26824. I noted there that the issue with the Back button is a known issue discussed at the MSDN, so perhaps your developers can do some research there. When a Help system I work on exhibited that issue, we solved it (if memory serves) by my adding a meta tag in the target and making sure that Mark of the Web was turned OFF, and the developers then set Mark of the Web to ON from within the app, as well as did some other twiddles that I don't recall now. I'm probably not being at all helpful, but I'm hopeful that something I've mentioned might take you in a path to the solution.
