Clearing Your Browser Cache

How do I make sure I have the most recent information on a web page?

The easiest way to make sure you have the most recent information is to press the Refresh/Reload button on your browser toolbar after the web page loads.

If the information appears out of date, you may need to clear cached information from your computer. Your browser may be showing you information you have downloaded and "cached" on your own machine.

What can I do if a website application is generating errors in my browser?

Most website applications utilize cached information. Out of date information in the cache can cause application errors.

If a website's application is generating errors you may need to clear cached information from your computer. The application may be trying to work with information that has been "cached" on your own machine and is no longer valid.

How can I delete my information from the cache?

To clear your cache, follow the instructions for your browser from the software developer.

Regardless of the browser you use, after completing these steps you should exit and reopen the browser application before attempting to revisit the web site.
