I've been recently having a problem with Bulbapedia. Whenever I enter any page (Pokemon data, episode info, etc), when I try to use the back button, it won't go back. When I hold down the back button to access the quick history to find out why, I get a list that shows the same webpage repeated a number of times. Basically, it shows the same exact page that I'm on several times in a row, sometimes as many as seven or eight times, even if I only accessed the page once. It's only happened on Bulbapedia, as any other site I go on doesn't have this problem. I even checked with my laptop, the family computer, and even a library computer to see if it was just mine, and they all end up with the same problem. Does anyone know why this is happening?

If you use a section link from the table of contents on any article, your browser will treat that as if it's loaded another history point that it can go back or forward to. If you've viewed multiple sections on an article via such section links, you will get multiple entries that you can go back to. If you're not using section links, however, I am not sure what could be the problem.

Additionally, Bulbawiki issues should be reported in the Bulbawiki General forum.
 
@Kogoro; I haven't been using any section links, I just simply scroll down, yet it still repeats the page in the back button's quick history. And, whoops, I forgot about the Bulbawiki General Forum. I'll relocate this issue there.
