The "Go back one page" button on the Navigation toolbar doesn't work on certain web pages.
Issue
Firefox is having problems with certain web sites
Description
The "Go back one page" button on the Navigation toolbar doesn't seem to work on certain pages. On clicking this button, the focus stays on the same page and does not move to the previous page. The previous page does not appear even in the right-click context menu of the Back button. However, I am able to go back one page using Internet Explorer.

Try to open the right-click context menu of the Back button and see if you can go back further.
The current active entry in that list has a bullet in front of it. If you hover an entry in that session history list then it shows the direction by adding an arrow at the left. You can left click an item to open it in the current tab or middle-click or Ctrl left-click an entry in that list to open that link in new tab, just like you can with other links.
