Question

I am working with a table and using the EditTablerow Plugin for editing. Sometimes, after making changes in edit mode, clicking "Update" and having the view mode page load, old information is displayed. It seems that pressing the refresh button in Firefox 2.0.0.16 will cause the latest info to be displayed. Is this a known issue? Any ideas for fixing this?

If you answer a question - or have a question you asked answered by someone - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status is in a drop-down list below the edit box.

It sounds like a caching issue. Normally views of TWiki pages have a ?t=8827398 type parameter on the URL specifically to defeat caching in the browser. Chances are that the EditTablerowPlugin doesn't subscribe to this approach.
