Hello friends,

How To Solve Browser Caching Problem?

[kumkum]

You can resolve this browser cache issue by manually clear browser issue, but if it will not help you then you can follow below steps:
Here are some ways you can try to fix your caching problem, in order of escalation:

- Try holding down the Shift key while pressing the Refresh button.

- Close your browser and re-open it (make sure you are NOT on the cached page) and delete your temporary Internet files (clear your cache). For instructions on clearing your cache, see the section below How to clear the cache in commonly used browsers:

- Restart your computer.

- Use an alternative URL for the same location. For example, if you are going to www.yourdomain.name, you might go to your IP address instead. If you don't know any alternative URLS, ask Technical Support to provide you with one. Be sure to tell them exactly which URL you are using.

- Use a different browser (if you use IE, try Firefox, and vice versa).

Yea this is a big issue for developers if you use something like chrome and are developing on localhost you can use your incognito mode and take it a step further by disabling chrome setting browser caching.

Browser caching is also very much dependent on the browser you are using if you use something like duck go you are going to have far fewer issues in development, but it's slower. I wouldn't suggest the above method as there are probably some files in your cache you would like to keep. YOu also have the option in some browsers to click on the URL bar and clear the cache for that site specifically without throwing away all of your data.

Sometimes your change might be related to a DNS cache in which case you can run command prompt functions such as ipconfig / release renew and flush DNS. Restarting your PC and router for a few minutes will also solve this.

The browser never clears its Cache, even when it is completely full. This results in issues with web applications because the Cache is most likely to cause any problems that do not affect the same user on a different device.

Steps to Automate Clearing of Cache:

Internet Explorer -
Tools -> Internet Options -> Advanced -> Scroll down to " "Security" " and checkmark " "Empty Temporary Internet Files folder when the browser is closed."

Mozilla Firefox -
Tools -> Options -> Privacy -> Select Use custom setting for history if not selected -> checkmark ‘Clear history when Firefox closes’ ->Make sure that Cache is checkmarked and exit option with ‘Ok’ button.

Google Chrome:
There is no automatic clear cache option in Chrome. This is because project Insight employs real-time data that is constantly changing, making it impossible for browsers to accept it and providing no way to automatically clear Cache.
