What
to do if navigation bar is not displayed properly?
If you
experience problems (example:
the source code of the page is displayed instead of the actual page)
while trying to load your pages this may be caused by multiple factors one of
them is the Internet's transfer rate, the other might be the size of your cache.
The first thing that you should do is to refresh the web page. The next
step is to increase the cache size. Please follow the instructions bellow in order to set the size of your cache so your
pages will load properly.
Change the Size of the Cache
The "Cache" in your computer is a
temporary storage area maintained by your browser. This "Cache"
or "History" area allows faster browsing because your computer does
not have to download pages if they are already stored in the cache. For
example: Each time you hit the back button on your browser, you are
accessing a cached copy of the web page you were just visiting.
The suggested size for a large cache is 5 to 10
percent of your hard drive.
If you visit a lot of sites frequently, you may
want to increase the size of your cache so it won't fill up quickly. The
cache will automatically dump the files when it is completely full.
If you surf new sites regularly and rarely return
to the same sites, you will want to use a smaller disk cache.
For Internet Explorer:
To resize
your Cache file on a PC, follow these steps:
1. Go to the View menu, and

size and to the left to decrease the size

Cache file on a Mac, follow these steps:
