Today's News Clips - Help Page

Question:

I do not see any news clips, articles or headlines on this page. Why not?

Answer:

This page uses a JavaScript (a web-based programming language) to first look up and then list today's news articles. Some web browsers are not compatible with this JavaScript.

If you are using Windows, you may need to update your web browser software to the latest version:

If you are using a Macintosh computer and Mac OS 9.2 or earlier, you most likely will not be able to view the news clips regardless of what web browser you use. However, if you use Mac OS X or later, you can view the news clips using either the Netscape Navigator, Firefox, or Safari (included with Mac OS X 10.2 and later) web browsers. Internet Explorer for Macintosh will not work.

Question:

I clicked the Refresh (or Reload button in Netscape/Firefox) button in my toolbar, but the news clips on my screen are old. Now what?

Answer:

If clicking Refresh or Reload does not update the news clips for you, try one of the following:

First, force the browser to refresh or reload:

In Internet Explorer, hold down the Control and Shift keys while you click the Refresh button.
In Netscape/Firefox, hold down the Shift key while you click the Reload button.

If that does not work, clear your browser's cache (pronouned like "cash"), cookies, and history:

Go to this link for detailed information on Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator.
In FireFox, open the Tools menu, and select Options. In the window that opens, click the Privacy button. Clear your cookies, history and your cache here. Choose OK to exit.
In Safari, open the Safari Menu, and choose Empty Cache. When a verification menu appears, choose Empty.
