I have my phone set up to open a Firefox tab whenever I click an external link on Twitter. When I get done reading an article, I usually just hit the back button, and it brings me right back to Twitter. But for some reason, the back button doesn't work whenever I open up a link from The Washington Post. Anyone know why?

Hi,

it is a technique used by the website with the construction of urls, ie it creates a new page and therefore the return is not available anymore.

thank's
