Weird behaviors

[Patricia275787014y6k]

Having recently updated my macOS to Monterey, and also updated Dreamweaver, I am now having very strange behaviors. Working on a website and the page designs seem to be changing all on their own and showing up differently every time I click on them. Could this be a cache issue?  Please help! I also just installed new memory if that has snything to do with anything.  Msny thanks, Pat

I don't know what keeps changing means.

Validate code and fix reported errors. 

Window > Results > Validation > click the triangle to check document.  Repeat with other documents. 

When all your pages are free of code errors, save your work and preview in browser.

Hard refresh browser (Ctrl + F5,  Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + R). 

Hope that helps.  If not, post back.

Thank you, I will check out your suggestions. What I meant was that the pages kept reverting to former versions in terms of design, without me doing anything

[Nancy OShea]

Are they reverting to previous versions in Dreamweaver Live View or real browsers?

Are you saving your work often with Ctrl/Cmd + S and refreshing Live view with F5?

They are reverting in live biew.  I think I'm saving often, but I haven't refreshed he is saying that approach very often so I'll give all those things to try. Thanks so much for your suggestions.

Sorry for all of the misspellings. What I meant was that I try to save often and that I don't know that I've use that refresh method so I will try. Again, I'm seeing these things in Dreamweaver.

Well Dreamweaver does what it you tell it to do when you save and refresh the page.

If your files aren't saving, that speaks to a bigger problem with the computer system (read/write permissions, failing primary hard drive, etc...)

Is your testing server on your Mac or remote?  If the testing server is on your Mac is it the one from the OS or something like MAMP?  Personally speaking I use MAMP because with each Mac OS version that updates things could change. You can also change caching settings in case your page is not refreshing.

Thanks very much for your feedback. I was able to work it out by going line by line in the code of all my different pages in finding my little mistakes I also checked into the cache settings.

Thank you for your assistance, I was able to figure it out, thankfully!
