FireFox Problem

So I hit my first gliche with FireFox. I went to my website http://www.costone.com.au/

to add a new Testimonial from one of our customers who was good enough to take the time and send us some praise.

I logged into my site and everytime I changed to the "Testimonials" page it logged me out. After messing around for awhile I was able to get in and add the text, however, when I logged out it didn't appear. I logged back in and it was gone. So I did it again with the same result.

Eventually I fired up IE and loaded up the new testimonial no problem...its there (there are now 4 testimonials). Still FireFox will not show that fourth testimonial and its hours later. It seems to be hung up on the old page. Re-booting FireFox didn't help either. It seems to be something to do with the security log-in or something:beatsme:beatsme

Do I have to clear the browsing history or cookies or something?. That would be a PITA everytime I want to update my site.

On edit: I just followed the link from this post (in FireFox) and the fourth testimonial wasn't there so I hit the "reload" button and it logged me into the site and sure enough it appeared. When I logged out it disappeared for a few minutes and I hit F5 and up it came.........something fishy going on with FF. How can I fix this.

:DSquizzy setup Firefox to delte your browsing history when you exit the browser. That is one bug I have with it. If you want I'll get some screen caps together and show you how if needed. What's happening is the cookie is evidently not updating to the new one for some reason. Which version of Firefox you using?


I do like your website. Nice work done there. What about a nuclear powered computer. bigger and badder than the HAL-9000? :D :rolleyes:
