How to reproduce: 1) Go to any revision history. 2) Click the datestamp on an old version. 3) Click the edit tab. 4) Scroll down and click the cancel button. What happens: The current version of the page is displayed. What should happen: The old version of the page (same as step 2) is displayed. Workaround: use the back button in the browser, instead of the cancel button. (Seems so obvious that someone should have posted it already. But I searched several times and didn't see it.) Many thanks,
Clarified summary.
Fixed in r56441.
Wow! Thank you, thank you.
Fix is insufficient; try for instance previewing the edit -- now the cancel link shows no oldid parameter.
Why do we even have a cancel button? Removing it seems like the easiest fix; it's clutter. We may as well have a back button on every page . . . that's what the browser UI is for.
Corrected in r62027.
