    Default Help with Website building

    Hi guys, hope someone can help. I'm trying to edit pages for a website, and I've done so, but having saved the edited pages and uploaded them, there are no changes displayed when you view it online, even though when you preview them within the admin bit of the host, the changes are shown. So have I missed something, or what am I doing wrong? I don't know much about websites at all, so any help very much appreciated!

    Sorry if this is a bit obvious, but have you tried clearing your browser cache, as it's possible you're still viewing the old version of the page stored there?

    Thanks, no I cleared that to make sure and tried different browsers (I don't know if that makes any difference, but I tried anyway) and nothing, so it's a bit frustrating really.

    Delete the old versions of the page?

    I did that and ensured that the new versions had exactly the same names as the old ones that worked. From what you're saying it'd seem like this should work automatically then- can't think what I'm missing.

    If you deleted the old pages.. Then simply no one can view them.. Ermm.. Try another PC.
    "Cry, the beloved country, for the unborn child that is the inheritor of our fear. Let him not love the earth too deeply. Let him not laugh too gladly when the water runs through his fingers, nor stand too silent when the setting sun makes red the veld with fire. Let him not be moved when the birds of his land are singing, nor give too much of his heart to a mountain or a valley. For fear will rob him of all if he gives too much."

    Cry, the Beloved Country by Alan Paton.
