And this is again not the only truth :) Maybe there is some caching involved - Metatags? I have such a situation right on my screen: no-cache Meta's, a POST, than a link for further navigation and no way back. Actually it is not the mix of POST and GET, my explanation was not exact: it is the expired template. But - if I change the form method to GET, I *can* go back, Metatags or not.
