I've got a report that accepts multiple parameters and presents a table of data. From that table, a user can access a more detailed report by clicking on a specific row. From the detailed report, the user can press the back button in IE and be directed back to the first report with the original parameter values still populated.
This process works great in IE9. However, in IE8, the parameter values are lost when the user returns to the first report after viewing the detailed report IF the report address is something like this: https://x.y.org/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=%2fsomething%2fsomething+Reports%2fReportName. Now, if I'm using IE8 with a report address something like this: http://server/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=%2fsomething%2fsomething+Reports%2fReportName the parameters correctly repopulate.
Here is something else that is very strange, if I'm using IE8 and I replace the "%2f" with "/" when using something like this https://x.y.org/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=/something/something+Reports/ReportName, the parameters correctly repopulate.
The goal is to access the report securely (i.e. https) and use the back button in IE without needing to build a custom back button.
HELP!!!! 😉

I'm not sure if this solution will work in your scenario but you could adapt it to find and replace the items in the URL:
=Replace(URL, "%2f", "/")
