Is it possible to make it so that when we hit the 'back' button we go to the page we were on previously, instead of always going back to the first page?
Just a thought.

Where are you seeing this happening? I haven't noticed any issue... but I don't use the back button often either.

Say I'm in a hatchery on page 8 or whatever and click on a baby....when I'm done looking at it and I hit the back button, it takes me back to page 1, not 8. It would be nice if we could go back to where we left off, not the first page. My browser doesn't open another tab when I click on pets or I could just close that tab. If I close the tab, I close the game so I must use the back arrow at the top, which doesn't take me back to where I was on page 8, it takes me back to page 1. Sometimes if I'm going fast and not really paying attention to what page I'm on, I have to go back though all those pages trying to find where I left off.
Same with the stable. If I'm on tab 5 in my stable and click on one of my pets, when I'm done and hit the back button, it takes me to tab 1, not 5 where I was before. Again, for me anyway, closing the tab isn't an option because my browser doesn't open another tab when I click on pets. Hope that makes some sense.

Okay, yeah I know what you mean now. I open most things in new tabs so I don't run into that often.

Yeah, it's a royal pain. Sometimes if I'm digging through a hatchery looking for pets to buy, I don't always pay attention to what page I'm on. After looking at a pet and clicking 'back' and going to the very first page again, I end up having to dig though those pages again to find out where I left off. Simply implementing something that would take you back to the page where you were would be very nice.

I think this might happen when the new hatchery comes out, since were going to have tabs like in the stables.

This is actually quite annoying with the new stable setup because changing stables doesn't change the url, so if you are looking at a pet that's not in your first stable and you hit the back button, it brings you all the way back to the first tab of the first stable.
so, full support :)

In order to do this, the page would have to reload each and every time changing a stable or tab. At least as far as I understand browsers working.
Using the "Back" feature returns you to the URL of the page previously visited. In order to change the URL, you need to set a new URL destination and reload the page to that URL.
I really don't think that would be more convenient if every time you switched a tab or stable the page had to reload.
The system was created so that if you go to view a pet, it's assumed that you'll open the link in a new tab (either hold down 'ctrl' and click or right-click and open in new tab).
