Because you used a component action to get to that page.  Either use  
a direct action "directly" or use WORedirect to make sure the page is  
displayed with a DA URL.  With a component action URL, the  
originating page is recreated each time to to see which display  
element was clicked to create the page.  Eventually you walk out of  
the cache of pages for backtracking.

A direct action should fix you right up!
