I am in an online class and need to set cache to always reload a page. I do not even know what a cache is. I have just downloaded Firefox 18.

hello mdonovan1977, you could try the following: enter about:config into the firefox location bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named browser.cache.check_doc_frequency. double-click it and change its value to 1 - this should make the browser check for a new version of a page each time it is reloaded.
