CSS Caching

[bassguy]

Hello All, Are CSS Cached somewhere on the server somewhere?

I make changes and they are not instantly changed so I make a change then make another then the first change shows up etc. I am using FP2000 and IIS5.

Also, Can you apply backgound and font family to Stylesheets. It seems I can if they CSS is inline but as soon as I move it to a .css file they do not work.

any help will be greatly appreciated

Thanks

Hi Bassguy,

Not sure about your caching question, but for the stylesheet question, yes, you can apply background and font-family to stylesheets. Just do something like this:

body { background-color:green; }

p { font-family:arial, sans-serif; color:blue; }

Be sure you link to your stylesheet in your web docs using the following code:

<link rel=&quot;stylesheet&quot; href=&quot;styles.css&quot; type=&quot;text/css&quot;>

Hope this helps!

Yes, I believe CSS is cached just like JavaScript. Sometimes clearing out your cache will work. When all else fails I close out all my browser sessions and then it will grab the &quot;new stuff&quot;.
