My website seems to be displaying incorrectly on most browsers until the page is refreshed. Check it out here:
I'm puzzled as to why this issue is occurring and why it resolves itself upon refresh (even without clearing the cache).
The layout consists of floated divs with left margin. Any insights on what might be causing this?
The layout appears consistent to me on Internet Explorer for Windows and Firefox on Mac...
If you encounter any discrepancies, depending on your browser and operating system, I recommend performing a HARD-REFRESH to ensure that you are accessing the most up-to-date styles, scripts, etc.
To execute a hard-refresh (rather than a standard refresh):
On Internet Explorer or Firefox for Windows: CTRL + F5
On Firefox for OS X: CMD + SHIFT + R
You can also achieve this by CMD + Clicking (or CTRL + Clicking) the Refresh button in your browser.
If you wish to temporarily disable your cache...
You have the option to easily disable caching to ensure all page loads fetch the latest content (although it may consume more bandwidth with each hard refresh).
I personally find the fastest method to disable cache is by using the Firefox Add-on Developer Toolbar:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/60?collection_id=da0ecd99-2289-7ab0-7d57-e7c489c845c3
I hope this information proves helpful!

Hey there! I just wanted to clarify a common misconception about page refreshes. Contrary to popular belief, hitting "Refresh" does not necessarily reload everything from scratch, even if it's in the cache. It would have been so convenient if that were the case, right? Unfortunately, pressing F5 doesn't always trigger a complete page overhaul.
If you take a look at the network tab in tools like Firebug, you'll notice that after hitting F5 on websites like XKCD, certain resources like images may return a status code of 304, indicating that they are "Not Modified". This tells the browser to simply use the cached version stored locally on the user's device since the server hasn't made any changes. In fact, many types of files such as images, scripts, CSS, and static HTML files are typically cached and won't be re-downloaded with a simple F5 refresh.
So, if you truly want to give your page a thorough "refresh," you'll need to clear your cache using shortcuts like CTRL+SHIFT+DEL or other options available in your specific browser settings.
When you hit refresh on a webpage, it triggers a complete reload of all content from the server, bypassing any cached data. I recently visited your site and refreshed multiple times to see if there were any changes, but it appeared unchanged each time.
Perhaps there could be a potential local problem at play here, possibly due to cached CSS/images and similar issues. It seems that the browser may be utilizing the cached files instead of loading the updated versions. I must admit that upon inspection, the appearance remains unchanged to me regardless of how many times I refresh.
