This is really odd, because it shouldn't be happening at all.
When I access wellness.learnitlive.com on FireFox, I see it redirected to: http://www.learnitlive.com/classes-events/Health-Wellness/280.html
When I access wellness.learnitlive.com on IE/Chrome/Safari/Opera, I see it redirected to: http://www.learnitlive.com/wellness.php
Both are from the same machine. I'm not having FF use any proxy. Moreover, I see the same results on someone else's machine as well.
The /classes-events/Health-Wellness/280.html redirection was specified in the httpd.conf file yesterday, but is now set to /wellness.php and the httpd server has been restarted several times since the change.
I'm not sure why FF would be behaving like this.
I'm using OpenDNS and have refreshed their cache as well.
Interesting! And weird! Thanks gman - any thoughts on how I can 'break that'? – siliconpi – 2011-12-30T06:42:31.450
I'm using mod_pagespeed on this server, but that didnt help in this case. – siliconpi – 2011-12-30T06:57:14.780
1Browsers cache content for faster page load times. Clearing your cache when doing web development/deployment is just a part of life. – Garrett – 2011-12-30T06:59:50.217
@SidB: It's not weird if the module is using 301 "Moved Permanently" type redirects; those are not only supposed to be cached, but the browser is even allowed to update bookmarks and links based on 301. If you want temporary redirects, switch to 302 "Found" or 307 "Moved Temporarily".
