Making changes to website

WEB DESIGN

I wanted to make some changes to a simple html website so I rewrote the code in notepad saved it as a html file and uploaded to the filemanager of my hosting account.

I deleted the old index.html file and renamed the newly uploaded html file as index.html. However when I go to my homepage I still get my old webpage. When I go to "mywebsite.com/index.html" I get the newly updated website so I know that everything was uploaded right.

Would someone tell me how to get my homepage updated correctly?

The fix to your problem could be as simple as deleting the cache in your web browser.

Options:

1.) Clear the cache in your web browser.
2.) If you are using Chrome (sometimes it has this bug) Do #1 and restart.
3.) Re-check your files in the web server, see that there's no other index.html, index.html or similar...

Good luck

I suppose you could clear your cookies. Alternatively, test the site in a different browser. That will guarantee it isn't simply a cache problem.
