Bang up to date Web pages
Not sure you’ve got the very latest version of
the Web page you’re on? Here’s how to be sure!
What a lot of folks don’t realise is that there are
more levels of caching between a Web server and you than you can
count. The easiest way to be sure that what you’ve got onscreen is
the very latest version of what you want to be looking is to simply
press F5 – the fifth function key.
This works in AOL (all versions that are
current), Internet Explorer (all versions) and Netscape,
as well as most other browsers.
What pressing F5 does is to force the server
to send you the version it’s got, and also instructs your browser to
bypass any caches on the route. That way you’re guaranteed to get
the very latest copy of the page you’re viewing.
Don’t forget – press F5!
