HTML - Browser Caching Problem - Post/get Ajax

First off, hello to everyone! I'm relatively inexperienced in the area of webmastering, and have a weird question...

I created a site for the union where I work, and have noticed a very annoying phenomenon. When we update a page, it sometimes doesn't update right away (sometimes for several days) when we try to access the page from within our building. Clicking "refresh" has no effect in IE, but clicking "reload" in Firefox does! Also, in both browsers, clearing browser cache before re-loading the page doesn't force the browser to get the new page from the Internet (I thought it might, but I guess not.)

I did notice, however, that clicking a link to the page (rather than typing it by hand), gives a different result: in IE, it takes you to the old version of the page, but then hitting "refresh" now really does load the new version; but in Firefox, the behavior is the same as if the URL were typed in by hand.

A friend who is much more experienced than I am said it's likely that our IT folks (who administer the network we use to access the Internet in this building) are running software that caches frequently-accessed pages, to speed things up and cut down on bandwidth usage in the buillding.

If this is the case, is there some script or code I can insert into my HTML that defeats this and forces the browser to load the page from the actual URL on the Internet rather than the cached version?

Or, if my experienced friend is wrong, what on earth could be causing this weird problem? The hosting company says it seems like a local caching issue, and not on their end.

Thanks for any help you may have!

Hi all

I'm new to html...
I'he created one Html Page. Which comtains Frames.
It is working fine in Firefox but in IE8 size is increased.. (Looking Like Zoom In) and Border of the Frame is not displaying in IE8.
(You can see it in Images)
so
How to Make it look Similar on all Browser?

Please help me to solve this..

I am making a website he http://musicalmadness.zymichost.com/index.htm

In the links on the left there is a page called "Solo Albums" - this is the page I'm having trouble with.

As you can see, I've made tooltips over the images listing the tracks of the albums. I've decided to make them position underneath the image.

However, when they are activated they are shifting the entire page around.

Is there a way to make it so they simply appear OVERLAYING the rest of the page?

PLEASE look at CSS.

Thank you!

In Firefox the banners are spaced further apart. But when I click on them they grow closer together.

Hey guys,

I have some questions regarding my recent school project.
I'm working on a simple video-interface interaction that I'm having trouble with.

http://www.autoquicktrade.com/voto/

However, it only works on firefox. If I use safari/google chrome to view it, it will bounce up and down. Also, how can i make sure my mouse cursor stays in the video so when i scroll it won't make the website scroll too? (I tried Iframe but it doesn't work)*

Any ideas on how I can solve this?

Please help!

Thanks

Greetings!

I'm trying to put sheet music into my webpage. However, whenever I add the notes via notepad, the outcome always looks like a complete mess.

Example: Take a look at the sheet music on this page: http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/tabs/..._album_tab.htm

How can I copy and paste this and keep an organized format when plugging it into my my website.

Hi there,

Im sorry to be bringing up this rather well trodden topic, but after extensive searching through forums and trying everything I could find, I must admit I need some expert advice.

Building a website, mostly html, with a small amount of css for text.
Site works well in safari, firefox, chrome, but not IE.

IE (7) displays the top navigation bar section, but ignores the rest of the site. Ive been trying to validate and fix all the problems, but some of the issues raised I cant fix without changing the site's appearance. I dont believe my css is complex, and other info sites have suggested what Ive used should be supported by IE7. The only thing I can now think is that for some reason ie7 doesnt recognise the second table onwards.

I am sorry to be using tables - this may be my downfall - but my client wanted to have the site as accessible across the world (and so rubbish olf browsers etc) so I wanted to use as little css as possible.

Any suggestions would be very much appreciated,

Lindsay
