In Firefox 3.x when I session was restored it also restored form data, I'd guess using cookies??? Not sure.

For example if I create php page with a form and text field. And let's say this php page on submit fills some form fields. After session restore it would show me that data. It was really cool feature. I had several open tabs for the same search form and when I restored session they basically kept "search phrase".

In Firefox 10 I get restored those 5 tabs with this blank search page and have to remember and retype my search words.

Are you using Clear Recent History to clear any data (cache) when you close Firefox?

I'm using "Remember History" - it has no additional options

To see all the History and Cookie settings, select:

  • Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history"

if I select "Custom" then "Clear Recent History" is not selected

Does it work with a simple page like the about:home page?

Did you check for problems with session restore?

about:home is different. When you submit form there - reply data comes encoded in URL - GET parameters.

I'm having issue when reply data comes in POST
