Internet Explorer Cache : view cache?
I recently visited a website [made a purchase] but for some reason, the website wasn't saved correctly, and I need to access that "receipt" page thru my cache.... [since an email wasn't sent to me yet]....
Is there anyway to dig thru my IE's cache to find that webpage?
if so, how do I dig thru the cache, since i think it's only one file?
thanks!

I don't remember how to do that, but it required a 3rd party program or some hacking around.
If somebody knows, I'd appreciate knowing too!
<strong>I think there is a way. I remember a while back, somebody, somewhere, posted a way to extract non-downloadable quicktime movies from your cache.

That's for Netscape I believe
Ebby: I'd suspect that you either have some corrupted preferences for Netscape that you should delete or that the actual Netscape install is mucked up.

However, these are binary files so essentially you're out of luck.
Best to print out a receipt or save it to PDF if it is important. Most receipt pages cannot be bookmarked because of the way they are setup. It would require some extra effort and has some serious security implications if not done properly. For ecommerce sites I've done, I've gone with a login protected order history functionality instead.
