Description Gavin Sherlock 2006-04-13 00:01:42 PDT
1.  Go to Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page)

2.  Click on the 'Random article link'

3.  Keep repeating step 2 as many times as you feel like - each click will send the browser to a different url for each random article

4.  Examine history

Expected results:

Random articles will be in history

Actual results - none have been recorded.

Going back with the keyboard shortcut option-[ or using the icon on the address bar confirms that these pages are not in the history.

This occurs in the latest shipping Safari (Version 2.0.3 (417.9.2)) and the nightly build (WebKit-SVN-r13856.dmg)

I meant apple-[, not option-[ as the keyboard shortcut
