html and firefox question

Fri Jun 24, 2005 10:59 am

Ok i'm not sure if this is in the right section but i'm sure a mod will kindly move it there if it's not.
I notice with blogger specifically that when i view a web page in firefox, that i have previously viewed, it doesn't search for the most recent page. I assume this is a problem with the html code but i'm not sure how to fix it. I know there is a way to turn off caching in firefox but is that the only way to fix this problem? I seem to only have this problem with blogs written with the blogger service.

Glad to help, be sure to use both of the meta's, one for netscape typed browsers and one for Ie and the like.
Code: Select all

Ie stuff below

<META HTTP-EQUIV="Cache-Control" CONTENT ="no-cache">

The following tag works specifically on Netscape browsers:

<META HTTP-EQUIV="Pragma" CONTENT="no-cache">
