Hi

A friend asked me to check her page, and I found some missing graphics in there.
I pressed CTRL + refresh since I use IE. Her pics were still missing.

She said her pics were there.

She then asked someone else to check her page at their home.
They said the pics were there.

So she said that maybe my cache was not cleared.

So is my cache the problem and how do I clear it?

Thanks

Hi,

In IE goto Tools > Internet Options, then click delete files, when the popup opens check delete all offline content, then hit ok.

Hope this helps!

Go to Tools | Internert Options | under the general tab select clear history. You may also need to delete files from the IE temp file. using the same method select delete files.

Here's a different way to hadle chache:

*************************
At the top of the page:
<%
Response.ExpiresAbsolute = #date#
Response.AddHeader &quot;pragma&quot;, &quot;no-cache&quot;
Response.AddHeader &quot;cache-control&quot;, &quot;private, no-cache, must-revalidate&quot;
%>

If you find that you're still getting the old page, after clearing your browser's page and even deleting the file from the server, then IIS has it cached. You can clear this by going into the IIS Admin interface and unchecking &quot;Cache ISAPI Applications&quot;, hitting apply, uploading the new file, and turning the setting back on. You can also do this by issuing an iisreset call or unloading your application, at the cost of interrupted service.

Tony this code you posted above will work in a regular html document?

Just wondering because if so I would like to use it. Can you show an example of where you would place the code? Would it simply reside in the <head> tag?

I tried going into tools to do that - but it didn't work - could it have something to do with IE5.5?

The code TonyU posted is

for straight HTML use
<meta http-equiv=&quot;Expires&quot; CONTENT=&quot;Mon, 06 Jan 1990 00:00:01 GMT&quot;>
<meta http-equiv=&quot;Pragma&quot; CONTENT=&quot;no-cache&quot;>
<meta http-equiv=&quot;cache-control&quot; VALUE=&quot;no-cache, no-store,
must-revalidate&quot;>
