Tips for viewing the website calendar

A couple of people have experienced difficulty in seeing the most recent update of the calendar on the departmental website. The website calendar is current, and I think that the problem probably stems from the stored history on your web browser.

When you use Internet Explorer or other browsers, the browser stores a temporary copy of the page on your computer, so if you go back to it, the recall time will be faster. However, if you don't set up your browser to access the web site directly, you'll keep pulling up the old version from your computer, rather than the newest version from the website. Thus you'll not be able to view the most recent calendar.

To solve the problem, click the Refresh or Reload button on your browser taskbar. If that doesn't work, go in the Tools menu, click under Internet Options, and clear out your history and cache of previously viewed websites. If you still have trouble, let me know!
