It does it even when using the URL directly in the address line. And even if I use a alternative URL such as spending
www to the URL.
Maybe this is what I have:
https://w3guy.com/flush-delete-dns-cache-firefox-chrome/Classical example: some time ago, I changed the domain name of this blog . I had to update the nameserver record of the new domain to point to my hosting.
Because the old DNS record of the new domain was cached in my browser, access to my blog with the new domain was denied; in fact, i could access my blog with my old domain even after removing the nameserver record all because the browser still have the record cached.
In this article, I will show us how to clear / flush DNS cache in Firefox and Chrome.
Does that make sense?
EDIT: He says do it with an add-on.
But the add-on is too old.Also, I am no in Windows 10 and did the
ipconfig /flushdns & Firefox still wants to go to the dead page that no longer is on the Internet.
I tricked Firefox into letting me get part of the new page. I don't now how. But my blog ha stabs and I can toggle back and forth with the tabs and I can get into the home page. The home page is the place taht is tghe normal start page for my blog. I am not sure how this happens. But the blog is written in PHP.
Anyway, Chrome leans how to do what is right. Firefox is a slow learner.
I am writing this edit in Windows 10 using Firefox.
Chrome now gets to my blog right off. Firefox still wants to use the dead page and then can not get the home page right. Bu I can click the heme page tab and it behaves. But I can quit Firefox, try again, and it will do the same mistakes again.
Firefox is still my preferred browser. But it makes me a little sad at times.
If I wait awhile, Firefox might fix itself. I hope.
