Clear your Cache - How to

NOTE:
Before clearing Cache, try to:

• refresh (reload) your web browser
• turn it off - and on (Heh. IT-Crowd)
• change your browser (try it in another browser)
  
• restart your computer...
• try on another computer if you have a chance
  
• and if you're uploading template, try uploading the default Blogger template first, and after that, try to upload the one you want...
• also, if you're trying to upload new template, first delete all widgets in Page Elements manually (remove them)...somehow, this confuses the BX error...

In case you've tried all from ABOVE, and you've cleared your cache, then also delete:
► all private data, browsing history, authenticated sessions...Everything. Then, restart your browser. This never fails....At least it never did for me.

WHY DO WE CLEAR A CACHE?...
Clearing your web browser's Cache can solve a number of problems (errors) in Blogger. The most usual ones are:

• I have that bX-xxxxx error.. Again! Damn it...
• some of my buttons in Blogger are gone! Just disappeared...
• I've made some changes in Blog, but can't see them..Everything looks the freaking same!
• I was just rearranging my Page Elements, and now I have that bX-error thing....
  

Clearing cache also does some good to your browser features in general....
I do this clearing thing quite often (every 6-7 days).

WHAT IS CACHE ANYWAY?
1. You are "surfing" around the web, opening bunch of web pages.
2. The Cache remembers every place you've visited. Remembers pages and images. Cache stores that data in one little folder on your computer.
3. Now when you visit the same page again, browser will load it much faster. Thanks to the Cache. Because he remembers...
