Ubuntu
firefox-3.0 package

Web page difficulties for http://www.geocities.com/eldocco

Asked by George Skelly

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Using Firefox 3.0 with Ubuntu 8.04 OS. I have a web page at http://www.geocities.com/eldocco/. I have just modified several pages on my web page by uploading the changes to yahoo geocities. The upload is reported as successful. When I log on to it with firefox 3.0 the webpage is not changed at all and the previous web page that was supposed to be changed remains as before. I boot my other computer that has Opensuse 10. 3 OS and when I try to access my web page on the internet the access is successful. The new changes to my webpage appear successfully. I do the same with my Windows XP computer and both Firefox 2.0.0.14 and Internet explorer 7.0 are successful. It appears that there is something wrong with Firefox 3.0 on Ubuntu 8.04.

It is likely that you are still viewing the cached content. Can you try to do a shift-refresh (press shift+F5)? It should solve the issue. Thanks
