How To clear web browser's cache?
Â
Each time you access a file through your web browser, the browser caches it (stores it). In this way, the files (including any images on the page) do not have to be retrieved a new from the remote web site each time you click the Back or Forward buttons. You should clear the cache if you expect to see changes on a website.
