Hard to move in board

Post by strassenbahn (imported) »

When I have finished reading an item and seek to use the "back" function of my computer to return to the board, it takes forever to return. Does anyone else have this problem? It's not my computer, I think, so this only applies to Eunuch Archive of the various sites I belong to.

I experience the exact same problem. I usually just go back to the top bar and navigate back to where I want to go. It's a pain and hope that a technical solution can be offered...

Customers call with that same issue a couple of times a month. I suggest they try navigating in reverse in two ways: 1.) use the backspace key on the keyboard; 2.) click the back arrow on the Toolbar of the browser.

If both methods result in slow reloads, I then tell them to flush the browser cache. In over 90% of the cases, one of those fixes will resolve the issue.

When a computer leaves my office for its new home, the browser is always set to clear the cache every time it's closed. A browser cache has no use if you have a broadband connection, and clearing it automatically won't be noticed. If you're on dial-up, then you'll see slower initial loading of Web pages, but the backup function won't be affected.

If you need help setting your browser to clear the cache upon closing, let me know. I'll be away from the office for two weeks, but can give you instructions when I return. Please state your operating system and browser if you need help.
