This morning when I woke up , my Drupal test site was a mess.

My theme was broken and one of my primary links (which was set to a full url to a subfolder ) pointed to a node's css file.

After suggestions on the forum, I cleared the cache and theme was fixed.

After clearing my browser cache the link returned to the subfolder.

My questions is this:

How did Drupal cache a broken version of my site?

1) caching was and is turned off.

2) It must have been broken or at least looked like that for a moment in order to cache it.

3) Will this happen again and can I auto set the cache to clear?

It's possible that either your ISP or webhost had the cached versions of the page and not Drupal.

This is true but the pages had to be broken in order for either of them to cache it

so how did it break over night while i was sleeping
