Hey guys....

The weirdest thing is happening to me... I changed some graphics for a website and uploaded them, but the site was still showing the old ones. After this I removed all the graphics and made sure there were no more graphics to show, and guess what.... right! it is still showing the old damn graphics! Tried removing them and uploading the new ones a bunch of times but nothing seems to work.

Should I contact the host or does anybody else has any idea what the hell is going on?? Thanks much!

I am guessing you cleared your browser cache

 

[monty]

Yep!

That doesn't do the trick either....

Yep!

That doesn't do the trick either....

I reckon you didn't.

 

[monty]

I reckon you didn't.

Reckon wathever you want Aussie!:p

In the meanwhile I have to have this site up and running within 24 hours and still experiencing the same problem. Anybody....?

 

[Rowan W]

Could you let us see it? It may or may not be your computer.

 

[monty]

Thanks, but the problem seems to fixed for now. I left the site the way it was for a few hours and then refreshed it a few times. After this it showed the new graphics instead of the old ones.

I talked it over with my colleague and had the same problem in past on several occasions. He said it might be the proxy server of our internet provider who was caching the graphics. It this possible??

Anytime that has happened to me... reboot did the trick.

 

[monty]

Tnx much! I will try rebooting the next time this happens.

Ive had this same problem before, something to do with server side caching. If you rename the file and relink it, it will pull the new file immediately.
