From your description, I think I already found this "bug" in alpha testing
here.
If you don't want to have to search as the thread is long, I wrote the following December 29 2004 12:21 AM EST:
Okay, Jon. This one tests your skills on reproducing. :P
You have your left frame as usual. Press Home so you're on the site as regular. Now, here's where the bug begins. Press Refresh, and very quickly after, hit Manage Characters. If you did it correctly, the left frame will load with the Manage Characters screen instead of the right frame and you'll have two non-navigation screens. :)
I did further testing, and one can substitute the Manage Characters link with any of the following links and do the same thing -- load that page into the left frame instead of the right: Help, FAQs, Settings, Edit [viewing Favorites list], Home, Train, Auctions, Businesses, Clans, Community, Mine/All Recent Battles, Loaned/rented items, Forums, Active threads, Stats, Top Clans, [Stat that is randomly placed], Tournament scores, Current winning streaks.
Basically, all the links (except Higher, Lower, Specify, Fight, Inspect, search by user...) can be thrown into the left frame instead of the right frame (where they should be) so you have two non-navigation windows which will probably cause users to refresh, in which this case, will reset properly.
Jon's response was the following:
Sounds like another FF 1.0 bug, SNK -- it very definitely shouldn't be doing that. Working around it isn't difficult, just annoying; I'll put it on my low-priority list.
