Hi there fire fox help, I have read the page on 'How to clear the cache' but this does not seam to clear everything.

When I am editing a website on my computer and viewing the changes through fire fox everything works great, I just hit refresh. But when testing the websites changes online (after unloading it) I can not see any changes, using the refresh button is of no help and clear the cache is not helping either. I get quite frustrated with this as I then have to change the name of the web page just to get fire fox to refresh it properly and then change it back again.

Thanks for your time, Max

Hooray!

Thanks Cor-el, I used 'Shift + Reload button' and it works great!

Much appreciated  : )

I've tried all these and Firefox still won't load the current image. I know it's there because Internet Explorer does load it. Is there anything else I can try or look at?
