How are you emptying Safari caches?

Non-sponsored sites:

• Thru Apple menu in safari and
• Via OnyX

Are there other more effective, or more desirable ways?

I'm all ears, but shout loud since you live a distance away

Thru Apple menu in safari
I'm not familiar with that. Can you please post a screen shot? Perhaps the Apple menu is different while Safari 5 is active, I don't remember.

In later OSes, there is an "Empty caches" menu item in Safari, if you enable the Develop menu. That's the suggestion and instructions in all three of the links I listed. You'll have to enable that in Safari Prefs, if it is available in your OS.

To get a new version of any web page, any browser will have to actually download the page again. But it will first try to use the page it last downloaded and stored in the browser's cache (memory), even if that page is corrupt/damaged or has old historical data.

I must have forgotten to answer the empty cache question:
• via the Apple menu in safari
• via OnyX

OK, that OS probably didn’t have a Develop menu. And they used  “E” rather than “T”. At any rate, that’s what would/should have fixed any cache problem.

All I can offer is that there is something in these pages that Safari 5 did/cannot handle.
