Back Arrow doesn't work sometimes

I'm not sure this is the place for this and if not, I'm sorry.

But sometimes, not very often, when I want to return to a previous web page
I click the Back arrow ... but the system doesn't look for the prior page.
What's up with that? Any way around it? This came up tonight on a
gardening page!

Thanks much for your information.

Mike

Re: Back Arrow doesn't work sometimes

Use the down carat just to the right of the Back/Forward arrows.

Some websites/pages seem to do that here as well. It's not your
computer, it's something about the page you've visited.

Use View, Go to, OR look in History, the page itself was set up that way.
