I am building a website on ipage everything was working . I log on to continue and my design page would not load. I was told by ipage they were able to load it so I should make sure the history was cleared. When I clicked on history the "clear recent history" was not highlighted, so I could not click to delete any history. How can I activate the clear recent history? Not sure if this will work but it is a start.
