Caesar Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 Your GAY-OL browser is probably caching the page. If you clear the cache & refresh, I'm sure you'll see the updated version of the page.

AndyB Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 Clearing your own browser cache (temp internet files) may not solve the AOL problem since AOL may have cached the page on an intermediate/proxy server to "improve service" as AOL puts it (other people might describe it as AOL's crappy service).The solution is to trick the server (or proxy cache) into thinking you want a fresh version of the image on every reload. img src='your_image_name.jpg?random-number' would do that.
