Page refresh opens a different area of the forum!

Okay, this is very goofy.  I generally have 3 tabs open for these forums.  I refreshed the photography forum tab and it loaded up the forum comments page!  I thought it was just me not paying attention and accidently loading up a different page, but it's happened a number of times before and today I saw it happen!

Interestingly, I was going to say there isn't any rhyme or reason to it, but most times it's the photograhy forum tab that is refreshing to one of the other tabs: one time I recall it was the Lounge that loaded up and this time it's forum comments ...

anyone else experiencing this strange behavior??

    usually it happens around when i'm logged out. i'll log in, and hit reload on all the forum tabs i have open, go back to the lounge one, and it'll be FCA, or come to FCA and it'll be photoshop. ya, very weird stuff.

    I don't have this issue, I use NetNewsWire on the Mac as my method of browsing the forums.

    NIce to know it's not browser or platform specific!  We have now covered both PC and Mac and two different browsers.

    Just hope the "right" folks are listening ...

    happens to me all the time. just another little splinter under the fingernails we have to put up with...

    i never know what i'm going to get on a reload, forum comments, ps lounge or ps win. <TonyShrug>

    edit: FF3.09, (also .0,8) the 3 forums i mentioned opened in 3 diff tabs.

    dave,

    interesting!  I am running FF 3.0.9 as well - wonder if there is some correlation?

    I'm glad to know that I am not the only soul having to deal with this weird behavior!
