page refresh -- still a problem

[Jim Nagel]

This problem again (using Netsurf #4881 on ArmX6 OS 5.25).  See threads in 
this list dated 2016-may-03 (when #4088 was in use) and 2018-july-13.


Did some further updates on the Archive site today, and again came up
against the old fails-to-reload problem.  None of these do the trick:
 F5 or ^F5 or ^R or the buttonbar route or Adjust-click on the 
 buttonbar or ^buttonbar or Netsurf menu "Navigate > Reload this 
 page".
The old page always reappears.

Tried quitting and restarting Netsurf, still no joy.
Before anybody asks:  the site does not use frames.

I guess the item will have to be cleared from my local cache.  Is there a 
straightforward way of doing this that I don't know about? Iconbar 
"Choices > Cache" does not offer one.

Seems to me the "Reload this page" option ain't strong enuf.

Page refresh

[Richard Porter]

I'm finding that the reload tool isn't working. I update my web site and 
then check it but NetSurf won't show the changes. Refreshing the page 
doesn't work. I've tried different cache choices.

If I quit NetSurf and then re-run it, it loads the new page.

Has anyone got a solution before I raise a bug report?

I don't want a "user experience" - I just want stuff that works.

Use Adjust on the reload button (and Interactive help!).

Page Refresh

[Richard Porter]

I had a problem after updating a web page. NetSurf displayed the old 
version so I did a refresh but the first two images which were named 
the same as the previous ones were not reloaded. The third image which 
didn't have a predecessor loaded OK. So I then had to reload the first 
two images separately. Surely this shouldn't be the way it works?
