[tbnl-devel] Firefox

[Bob Hutchison]

Hi,

I've seen this before (long ago) and can't quite remember what caused  
it. I believe it has to do with restarting the lisp/TBNL server  
without restarting apache. Try cleaning Firefox's cache, if that  
doesn't work try cleaning everything in Firefox (the 'clear all'  
button in preference>privacy). You might have to refresh a couple of  
times too. It is a real pain.

If I remember, this is one of the reasons I work day-to-day with a  
stand-alone version of TBNL (either through Araneida or TBNL's built  
in capabilities (in fact, this is, I think, the reason I contributed  
the TBNL stand-alone stuff in the first place :-))

Cheers,
Bob
