Subject: Links reverting to previous visit question

Hello! I recently created a number of dance-related annotations for the Kalpana film upload at Pad.ma, but I'm finding a quirk in the user interface. I have found that Pad.ma often reverts to a previous URL I or others had visited before despite my/their entering a different one. For example, I may send a friend a link to a particular annotation segment (https://pad.ma/CFN/player/AV), but after a few seconds my friend notices the URL changes to https://pad.ma/CFN/player/AT, a different segment he had visited the day before. It appears that perhaps pad.ma or certain browsers are remembering or overriding the URL entered and displaying a previous view? I am hoping there is a way to get around this, especially since I'm not sure if the links I send to people are showing up correctly on their browser/machine. At one point, I found that going to clearing the UI in user preferences helped, but that works for people who have created an accout. Any assistance would be appreciated, thank you! ~Minai, cinemanrityagharana.blogspot.com
