Great post wicked...

Also for FF 2.0 - there is another cache (It might be the same) from Tools -> Clear Private Data.

Ctrl+F5 clears the cache and reloads the page while F5 ONLY refreshes the page.

Ahh, this surprised me for a second, I thought wicked was actually asking how to clear the cache :P

Couldn't believe she wouldn't know how to do that xD

Great post. Hopefully clears some problems ^^

The cache is like a thing that saves a whole bunch of files and such on a webpage. Clearing your cache gets rid of all that and forces the browser to get all the data again.

The reason your cache saves files is to make loading web pages easier. If it has a file stored then it doesnt need to request it from the server. For example when you load the classic map for hte first time it is stored on your cache so that the next time you need it it comes from your cache rather than the server. This just helps web pages load quicker.

your cashe is something that remembers pictures (and passwords if there is a remember me button) of sites so you don't have to load it over and over again, but if someone updates the picture without making a new url (just uploads a new picture for the same url) then sometimes you see the old picture, or it gives error, though it never gave me errors in safari
