Cookies and cache files

Hi all,
I'm writing an AJAX / HTML app and on a local HTML page, I
have to load remote content in an iframe.
It seems that cookies set in the remote sanbox are persisted
between application startups.
Is there a way to clean those cookies on application shutdown
or on next application startup ?
Thanks for anwers !

Hi all,
I eventually found a way to solve this (for a Windows
platform so far). Cookies and cache files are stored in the same
folder as for Internet Explorer ("Temporary Internet Files"
folder).
I you want to delete cookies and cache, empty that folder
manually or open the "Internet Options" popup in IE.

  • What is the diffrence between cookies and cache, is it safe to remove cache?

    what is the difference between cookies and cache , is it safe to remove cache ? . I had cleaned cookies many times but I have not removed cache , does it goes on increasing day by day ? please let me know

    Cookies are small files that contain information useful to a web site -- such as password, preferences, last date visited, etc. You may remove the cookies that you don't want adn since some of them are a privacy issue, many people remove them all.
    Cache is just a collection of data downloaded to help display a web page. After you leave a site, much of the cache is left on your computer and is no longer needed. You can always remove the cache because it will be replaced as needed.

  • Clearing history, cookies and cache

    Hi,
    After noticing that YouTube was freezing more and more when I use it, I decided to try clearing history, cookies and cache through 'settings' 'Safari' then 'clear'.
    The problem is that I don't think anything is happening when I do this. I still seem to have all my history in YouTube and Google, and I am not sure how to find out if Temporary or Cache files have deleted. I noticed that one of the postings suggested that I first need to close multiple Safari pages but this doesn't seem to have done anything either.
    Can anyone recommend how to:
    a- force a clearing of these files; and
    b- check if temporary or cache files have deleted?
    Thanks!

    Try to set the network.http.spdy prefs to false on the <b>about:config</b> page.
    *network.http.spdy.enabled
    *network.http.spdy.enabled.v2
    *network.http.spdy.enabled.v3

    Boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.

  • Firefox is running so slow even after clearing history, cookies, and cache

    My firefox browser suddenly started running very slow. I have cleared history, cookies, and cache. I have run scans, and even tried to uninstall and reinstall. it is still running slow

    flytnn,
    after a fresh install, Spotlight will need to reïndex the files on your internal disk — that happens each time a fresh installation takes place.
    I see that you have OS X 10.9.2 installed. Are you planning on installing the 10.9.3 update?
    Your installed version of Java is outdated — the most recent version can be downloaded from here.

  • Using Mac OSX 10.7.1: recently replaced our DSL modum & wireless router and suddently I can't get some web sites to load. Many do, but Twitter and others often do not. I've reset the browsing historty, forms, cookies and cache but it continues to happen.

    Ok, first thing, why are you doing anything with WAMP or XAMPP when you're running a Mac? MAMP should be what you want unless you're not explaining part of what you are trying to do.
    2nd thing, I haven't used MAMP in a while, but there are two possibilities for not seeing what you want to see once you have MAMP turned on. One possibility is that you already have "Web Sharing" turned on in your Sharing Preference Pane. If that is the case, port 80 will already be taken and you'll be seeing the default Apache install (files are stored at /Library/WebServer/Documents/). This would push MAMP to either not turn on it's web serving capabilities, or to push it to another port. The other possibility is that MAMP defaults to another port anyway. So instead of localhost, you might have to type in localhost:8080 or something similar. I believe the control panel that gets installed can take you to the currently MAMP-served page, and it can also help you change which port your serving on.
    80 is the default port for web serving and the ONLY port that will let you get straight to the server without having to type in webaddress.com:port# instead of just webaddress.com.

  • I cannot access the internet, I tried to answer that said to go to settings, safari, tap clear history, cookies and cache, cut off, then on, but it did not work.  When I go to internet the screen is grey??? please help I am a new user!!

    I cannot access the internet the screen is grey, I have tried by using the answer from someone but it does not work...I went to settings, tap safari, then clear the history, cookies, and cache, then turn off ipad.  When I did that twice, it did not work.  How long does it take for the clear history to work?  I am a brand new
    user of the ipad2 and I am disappointed that this is happening already.

    Have you been able to access the internet previously and now it's suddenly not working, or are you still trying to access the internet for the first time on your iPad?  Are you at home trying to connect through your home router?  If you are at home, did you put your home routers encryption code as your password?  The encryption code is what your iPad is looking for and it is usually found on the router and is typically a 13 digit combination of letters and numbers.  Let us know......

  • Can someone help me when Firefox closes randomly it removes all the cookies and cache, and I am not able to restore lost tabs...?

    For a while now Firefox has randomly shut down for reasons unknown. Sometimes windows reports the error but not always. When I start Firefox back up again, it does not restore my tabs. Also as an added bonus it deletes the cookies and cache, and I don't know why. Furthermore this occurrence has become more and more frequent. Just in the last hour along before writing this complaint, Firefox crashed three times right as I switch users, but not every time I switched. I am a taboholic, addicted to tabs, sometimes 70+, and this is the final straw. This frequency became more and more prominent a few days ago. When it first crashed, Windows was kind enough to let me know of the error which first occurred one to two weeks ago. It has become the very bane of my internet surfing. Someone please help, or I will have to renounce my allegiance to Firefox and switch to the dark side that is Crome.

    <blockquote>... or I will have to renounce my allegiance to Firefox ...</blockquote>
    There is no citizenship oath involved in using Firefox, it's a piece of software.
    Look, if Firefox isn't generating any crash reports, you more than likely have an operating system or hardware issue. If Firefox is generating crash reports you can retrieve that information and post the report numbers here.

  • What are cookies and cache?

    I've heard every once in a while you want to remove your cookies and cache! Why is this? Is that true? And what are cookies and cache exactly? Like their purpose

    The cache stores data from websites so you can load pages faster but on occasion the cache gets full and needs to be emptied.
    Read here about cookies.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_cookies
    You can empty the Safari cache from the menu bar, Safari / Empty Cache.
    If you have problems accessing a site, deleting the site related cookie can help. Go to Safari / Preferences then select the Security tab.
    Click: Show cookies
    You can delete all cookies or individually.

  • My safari screen is greyed out, I checked and found a response to this question.  I went to settings and cleared history, cookies, and cache, java script is on and I restarted, screen is still grey, cant touch it to do a thing.  Help!

    my safari screen is greyed out, I checked and found a response to this question.  I went to settings and cleared history, cookies, and cache, java script is on and I restarted, screen is still grey, cant touch it to do a thing.  Help!

    That is usually the fix but try this now.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. See if that helps.
    You can also try this - quit Safari. From the home screen - Double tap the home button and your recent apps appear the bottom. Tap and hold down on the Safari icon until it wiggles. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the app. Tap the home button twice. Restart the iPad.

  • Safari unable to clear cookies and cache

    Each time I reset Safari it is supposed to clear cookies and the cache, yet I do a reset, continue browsing and return to a site like hotmail and I'm still signed in...
    If I reset Safari and go right back to hotmail it's OK, but any delay and continued browsing allows it to somehow use the old cookies and cache. Does anyone have any ideas? I tried tech support to no avail. Thanks.

    I've done the plist delete several times, but that doesn't help. Somehow it is able to look back and re-create these cookies and cache. Is there a choice of using the cache or having Safari look for new pages each time?

  • Why is my Safari saving cookies and cache for sites I didn't visit?

    Why is my Safari saving cookies and cache for sites I didn't visit?

    That is the nature of today's data-hungry internet. Sites you visit often partner with sites you don't visit for sharing info on its vistitors. You end up with cookies from the other sites.
    This may help: Open Safari Preferences and click the "Privacy" tab. Under the section "Block cookies and other website data," check the button labeled "From third parties and advertisers." Restart Safari.

  • Essbase temp files and cache files

    Hi All,
    where essbase creates its temp files and cache files so that i can delete them.What is the path.
    Regards,
    Mink

    The DBAG lists the files (and types) used for various reasons. Some can be deleted, others should be left there for recovery attempts when the database is started up. If your database won't start, the temporary files that can be safely deleted are also covered, although this part might be somewhere else in the technical reference.
    There are also some backup files that could play a role, for instance, if the db file is the reason a database won't start, the backup file (dbb) can be used to replace it. For this reason, I don't recommend you just blindly delete all "unneeded" files if you are having a problem.
    If you are referring to temp files like what the OS uses, I don't believe essbase uses any of the "%temp%\randomname.tmp" variety. I could be wrong on this, but it keeps file usage fairly straightforward, with server files in the database folder and client files in the %arborpath%\essbase\client folder. Client files can indeed be deleted if you don't have anything open, but they are rarely orphaned so you shouldn't see enough to cause performance degradation.
    Hope this helps, between the perceived contexts and other potential intentions, there are other answers that may be more appropriate.
