Pages repeating

Why is that when you click the next page, often it repeats the previous page you just viewed even though it shows the next page number?

For example, I am on page 1 and I click page 2 or next and the page 2 supposedly loads, but it is the exactly same as the previous page as I just viewed.

Also, there times during the day when the site is quite slow.

Are you logged in when this happens? It is probably a good idea to give specific references for examples; such as thread and time of day. It sounds like a caching problem to me which should only occur if you are not logged in but I admit I am only guessing. A true tech like Rollyco would have a better idea but he needs as much info as possible in order to recreate the problem so he is able to "see" exactly what is taking place.

if there are 6 pages for ex, and you are an page 5 and want to go to page 6 but instead you repeatedly are redirected to page 5 so page 6 is not in reach it may be the following problem with firefox:

the history is messy... [normally this is reg the last but one and the last page of a thread]

just hit <STRG> <SHIFT> <DEL> to delete the history of a few hours or perhaps the day (today).

After you did it (perhaps even firefox will hang up when doing it and needs to be cancelled by task manager manually) page 6 again will be shown.

This is a problem which appears from time to time with the newer firefox versions in combination with some sites.

Don´t ask me why this is...

Never faced that problem here at A-O yet in combination with another site I have to do this at least once a week...
