Any ideas?
Use a larger browser cache perhaps, and to reload first try the "permalink" (or "view" tab on osm.org) to reload the exact same area. I'm not aware of any method (short of right-klicking the tiles and look at the tile images and reload them individually, then going back to the page) of selecting tiles for reload. - -- Dirk-Lüder "Deelkar" Kreie Bremen - 53.0952°N 8.8652°E -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHFJM0FUbODdpRVDwRAlK1AKDGlsrr6yBZ5soaFDyVs3XOjaHERwCglJUY UmOHQMZfE2a5a9zIou/y3no= =mXkp -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ newbies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/newbies
