Been a while but I came across a usability blunder bad enough I had to share it . REI uses some javascript to do some whacky stuff to the browser history. It’s so bad that on some pages of the site, there were over 30 entries before I could back up to the page I was previously at, and this is without taking any action on the page except moving the mouse. I checked a number of product and category pages and all had similar coding problems.
Quick screenshot, 1 of 3 pages of history of the same page:
This just defies all logic. I can’t believe anyone let this malignant code hit a production website, especially one the size of REI.
