Thanks Neredbojias, Jonathan and WD10:

I've bookmarked your page WD10, and I'll look at
it after I've finished some of the tutorials. What
do people think of the W3Schools tutorials? I've
used them before and they seem pretty good. Any
others I should be looking at for getting back up
to speed with Web development?

I don't mind caches. But I'm wondering if it
seems like a flaw in the browser that a non technical
user, with no knowledge of caches, can't hit the
"Reload current page" icon and get the current page
from the server. Is this something that should be
fixed in Firefox, or is this working just like it
should?

Thanks
Larry
