 * I updated my site yesterday… and forgot to fix the Style css. page to have the
   page image tags float left. I went in today, made the change and I can’t get 
   it to update. How long after I make a change to the Style css template should
   I have to wait for it to update?

 * Remember to press CTRL and F5 simultaneously when viewing an updated page/site.
   Or try emptying your browser cache. This should ensure that your web browser 
   fetches a fresh copy of the page rather than serving up an out-dated copy from
   your own cache.
 * Also disable/deactivate any caching plugin(s).

 * You would find editing much easier if you did it locally and did not use the 
   editor.

 * Funny you should mention that Root. I am ready for a lesson. The reason I have
   been so lost is my hosting Company downloaded everything on their server, gave
   me a password and sent me on my Way. Since then I have downloaded the wordpress
   stuff onto my computer. I assume this should allow me to do a fake site with 
   no URL correct? My first question is now that it is all on here… how do I get
   it all to open?

 * Ok. First things first.
    You need to install a local web server. There are packages
   that install, apache, php, and mysql all in one go. Its an essential first tool
   for a developer. So here it is:
 * [http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html](http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html)
 * Then u install WP. Once or twice at least eg: current version and beta for testing
   if u want.
 * Then load up some test data.
 * Ask again and we will talk you thru it.

 * If u want to start out in a pro and organised fashion install WP off the SVN.
   Ask here just before u reach that step.

 * That was my next question. I took all the wordpress of my computer, downloaded
   the apachefriends, but then I thought. Do I download WP into that apache file
   or just back onto my computer. So I guess that means I am ready for how to install
   off the SVN?

   not to use the C: area for the download
