Hi, I updated my website pages, saved them, then put them to my server. When I open my site in my browser, only two of my new pages would display and the rest remained the old ones. I called my hosting server just to make sure that this wasn't where the problem is. He told me that all of my new pages were recieved on the server. He told me to bring up one of my old pages in my browser and then go to the address bar, take the word: public/ , out of the address and then hit enter. When I did this my new page was displaying in my browser instead of the old one. But this is the only way to get my new pages to display and my visitors to the site won't know about doing this. What do I have to do to get my new pages to display the way they should when I just click on the link? The man I was talking to on the phone said he knew how to fix this problem but he couldn't help me because I was using Dreamweaver, a third party program. I've been dealing with this problem for some time now. Can someone please help me? If you would like to visit my site to see what I'm talking about, the address is: example: The featured items page is an old page and the best sellers page is a new one. Notice the address on each page.
 
Your pages are all linked to ../../public/....... ?? If this is not intended then have your links in DW set to the full path rather than document relative.

I really appreciate your answer, but how do I do what you are suggesting? I can't find anywhere in dreamweaver to fix this.
 
Try using a meta tag in the head section:
<meta name="expires" content="24 Oct 2006">

That will force the page to be refreshed if the date is more recent that the cached version.
