Clearing your browser cache
May 11th, 2009 | Posted by in Useful Tools to Make Your Life Easier | What's New?Each time you access a file through your web browser, the browser caches (stores) it. In this way, the files (including any images on the page) do not have to be retrieved anew from the remote web site each time you click the Back or Forward buttons.
Unfortunately, this means that when we release new features (and fixes for old ones), your browser may still be showing you OLD content. You should periodically clear the cache to allow your browser to function more efficiently.
