Trouble with refresh?
   

Here on RPGDot a new bug/problem for me is occuring.
If I click on a forum page, I do not seem to get updated info.
I.e. if I need to make a spelling or grammer correction I do not see the changes until I hit refresh even thou the page just loaded.
This happens very often, I just posted in the New Poll thread, to tell about the Starforce problem and as I came to the thread it said 12 post, but when I finished 5 minutes later and posted, it had 21 post all of a sudden.

I use Netscape 8.1 basicly Firefox and do NOT have this trouble on any other board, which really makes me think it is something on the site?

Thanks for any help or tips.

Is this a brand new issue? We just upgraded the forum software and Myrthos still has some kinks to sort out - it might be related.

Yes, guessing I would say within the last 30 days.

Edit
At first it was really bad when I edited like this, correcting spelling or whatever.
Worst case was if I edited an error , then saved and saw another one on a long post or such, even when I hit the edit post I would have to refresh the the edit screen cause it did not show my first edit yet.
If I didn't refresh I would end up editing the orginal post so my first edit would be gone and only so second edit.

Testing that right now doesn't seem to be happening any more, it seemed to stop doing that a week or two ago.
So the worst has stopped but still the problem exist in my orginal post occasionaly to moderatly often.

Edit

Actually I remember checking this with Netscape 7.2 and maybe Explorer but I am too tired to remember now about Explorer.

The forum software has been updated a few days ago. If you have this over a longer period of time than it is unrelated to the update.
Does anybody else have these problems?

No such disease here. FWIW. Sounds like his cache might be getting in the way of edits.

Cache was my thought too.
I tried running browser with no cache at all and still had the problems.
Thou, as I mentioned as of the last week, the most serious problem have stopped.
I do not have the problems on any other site, which I made me ask here, just incase.

Thanks for the tips.

Strange, aren't you the one with network on steroids? Your provider might be giving too much steroids to the network :].

Now, seriously. I don't have an idea what might be wrong. I hope the problem will go away.

Hehe thanks.
I have been trying to post and have not had a single problem since the post on the weekend about starforce compained posting links to pirate sites of a game that refused to use starforce.

So maybe it is fixed.
