Dear All,

some time ago if I check any web of actor, movie or something, in all other webpages the color of link to this actor, movie or something was changed, but now the color is changing not for all links.

For example:
If I watch the link of Titanic movie, and then press to DiCaprio, so in his list of movies Titanic will be unmarked as watched!

I hope you understand the problem.

I need to keep some track of movies and persons I have watched already, can I do something from my side?

My Firefox is keeping all history etc. What else I could do?

Most web browsers will not indicate that a link has been followed unless there is an exact match.

On the Christoph Waltz Awards page:
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0910607/awards?ref_=nm_ql_2
The various links for Django Unchained (2012) for each of the Awards are slightly different:

Academy Awards, USA
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1853728?ref_=nmawd_awd_1

Golden Globes, USA
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1853728?ref_=nmawd_awd_3

BAFTA Awards
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1853728?ref_=nmawd_awd_5

Ah, I see, but with old IMBD version all such links was the same, what is the reason to make them different?

Also maybe there is any browser who could match this links? Or maybe any plug in?

I'm not really sure - I've got no reply one way or the other. I can see no reason for them (it can all be done serverside) and had assumed it was a temporary measure following the redesign (which is why you might not do it serverside, as this is the simplest option), but it is still with us...
