This is a brief users guide to A.M. Costa Rica.
Old pagesEach day someone complains via e-mail that the news pages are from yesterday or the day before. A.M.
Costa Rica staffers check every page and every link
when the newspaper is made available at 2 a.m. each
week day.
So the problem is with the browser in each reader's
computer. Particularly when the connection with the
server is slow, a computer will look to the latest
page in its internal memory and serve up that page.
Readers should refresh the page and, if necessary,
dump the cache of their computer, if this problem
persists. Readers in Costa Rica have this problem
frequently because the local Internet provider has
continual problems.
NewspagesA typical edition will consist of a front page and
six other news pages. Each of these pages can be
reached by links near the bottom of the
pages.
ClassifiedsClassified pages are updated daily. Employment
listings are free, as are listings for
accommodations wanted, articles for sale and
