Help viewing pages?

I know we had this recently, but I can’t find it…
Phil sent me an email:
<BLOCKQUOTE><font size=“1” face=“Verdana”>quote:</font><HR>
For reasons unknown, when viewing forum posts, I can’t see page 2 of long threads. In fact, I usually can’t see new posts. I have tried deleting cookies, logging in, logging out, etc. Nothing seems to work. The problem is not universal, it only happens on active topics.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Help Please?

D,
If it’s the thread I’m thinking about, … Jax replied to himself

<BLOCKQUOTE><font size=“1” face=“Verdana”>quote:</font><HR>The only way I can access the latest posts on the boards is to click on the GO next to the Show topics for X days window? Have done the cookies thing but I guess I got it wrong. HELP!! Jax

Would you believe some lamebrain (edit) clicked the “Never look for newer versions of stored pages” option in Temp internet Options - Temporary internet files settings.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> [url=http://www.flyanglersonline.com/bb/Forum1/HTML/014414.html:9f6ad]http://www.flyanglersonline.com/bb/Forum1/HTML/014414.html[/url:9f6ad]

Phil’s browser options may be set such that a saved version of the web page stored on his hard drive is being accessed rather than the current version from the web site.

He needs to check the temporary internet files setting for his browser. If he is using IE 6.0, he should go to Tools/Internet Options and the Advanced tab, and under Security, make sure the box is checked for “Empty Temporary Internet Files folder when browser is closed”. Other browsers likely have similar options.

Hope this helps.

No need to clear cache or erase temp files.

If Phil is using IE:

Go to “Tools”, “Internet Options”

In the “General” tab in the “Temporary Internet Files” area click on the “Settings” button and make sure that under “Check for newer version of stored pages” the radio button is on for “Every visit to the page”

Just for posterity and future use:

Thanks for the replies. Unfortunately, none worked. I did correct the problem by right clicking the topic, opening the topic in a new window, and then refreshing the page in the new window. (Refreshing the topic while it is “imbedded” in the FAOL menu bar did not work.)

The problem only happens at work, with a corp. network interface to the WWW.

Again, thanks!

Phil, …

That’s really weird …

It could be that the IT folks at your office have put in some filters or changed the FireWall and you can’t refresh the same page once it’s cached.

Sorry we couldn’t help.

I assume your using Micro$oft Explorer ??

No worries…you guys put me on the right track.

I was using standard MS stuff.
