I have an annoying problem.

I have a few bits of iframe code and javascript on my pages, mainly with advertising in them. (the iframe includes another html page with some ads in).

Everytime I update the code I don't see any difference when I refresh the page in Firefox. For example, I just made a new page and copy/pasted some iframe code. When I checked the page in my browser I saw that I'd forgotten to change the path to the file, as the new page was in a different folder. I changed the code accordingly and refreshed the page, but nothing changed.

I checked the source code view from Firefox and the new code is showing. I tried reloading, but it doesn't make any difference. In the end I loaded up the page in Opera, and finally I could see that the new code is correct.

I have also noticed that if I have some google ads javascript on the page and I change it to some other bit of javascript, Firefox displays it as Google ads even if it is relevant to something completely different.

How can I convice Firefox to show me what I've just coded? The html updates straight away so this is pretty weird isn't it?

You just need to clear your browser cache.

I have - it doesn't make any difference .

In firefox goto tools->options->private data->settings and check that its clearing everything

Ok - thanks I think that did the trick! I checked the box "offline website data" and it seemed to work. Bit of a faff though if I have to clear the cache each time (what with the number of typos I make in my code when I'm writing LOL!)

Cheers

I think it is a FF issue. In IE you can force the browser to reload on each visit, but I dont think you can do this in FF, although there is probably a plugin that does it....

It was the new version of search and destroy that did it I think- it immunised me against tradedoubler. I can't see a way to tell it to ignore TD so I guess I'll get immunised again next time I run a scan. Well at least I know what to do now!

Just for the record, TD replied to my email within about 24 hours with reasonable instructions on how to solve the issue - kudos to them. Google worked faster tho

Start Spybot -> Settings -> Ignore Products -> Cookies.sbi tab -> Select Tradedoubler

Chris you are a genius. Can I please buy you a beer mate? Interesting list in there - kinda funny that germanpornhijack is treated with the same disdain at TD LOL!
