Any details on this?

That's all there is:
Code:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Cache-Control" CONTENT="no-cache"> 
<meta http-equiv="PRAGMA" content="NO-CACHE">
<meta http-equiv="EXPIRES" content="-1">

Tried this solution with firefox?
It disables the caching so it should work:

It's basically that the browser keeps feeding you the cached page rather then to get the actual page.

In order to "fix" this you need to disable http caching.

Go To about:config
(type it where you type in web addresses)

Then search for:
network.http.use-cache

And set it to False.
Now press (ctrl+)F5 or restart your browser and FireFox should be showing you pages AS THEY ARE.
(and not anymore as they were)


Hope this will end the endless repeating of this in the ChatBox.

The problem is that this fix will affect every site, not only this one, and i have no problems with other sites.

Indeed. My connection at my aprents house is incredibly slow, browsing without any cache would make everything even slower.

Edit: Even Internet Explorer 9 is affected. Ughhh...

We will not correct the bugs in our software, oh noes, you must screw your system settings to match our bugs and we don't care if it f*cks up the rest.

Tsssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss........

*to be clear: not aimed at the staff here, I even think it must be really frustrating to report those things and rarely getting adequate respons or fixes.

We've recently instituted some further changes to the specific HTTP headers used to prevent this issue, and far as I can tell it should be working fine now.
You'll need to clear your browser cache first to ensure old cached versions of the forum pages aren't interfering. This is one-time-only, as from then on the current set of headers should prevent the forum pages from being cached again.
Please let me know whether this fixes the caching issues for you or you are still experiencing them.
