Hi,

Try to clear your cache.

[brown2005]

how u do that?

[Daniel0]

Ctrl+F5

OR

In Firefox you go to Tools > Clear Private Data > Check only cache (or anything else you'd like cleared) > Clear Private Data Now
In IE6 you go to* Tools > Internet Settings > Temporary Internet Files > Check "Delete all offline contents" > OK

* I have a Danish version installed, so my translations may not be exactly correct of what it is in the English version.

ok, cool, well that works, but I dont want me or people to my site to be doing this everytime, how can i avoid it...?

[Daniel0]

It probably wont happen to them. You might have got the code that you have made wrong at some time in your cache so it shouldn't happen to your users.

thanks, but i dont want it to keep happening to me so what can I do? do i need to rewrite all the code so it works or is there an easier way?

Just thinking....
For just a refresh insert this button

[code]<DIV style="position:absolute;left:60px;top:58px;width:150px;height:48px;z-index:0" align="center">
<BUTTON type="button" onClick="window.location.reload()" name="Reload" value="Reload" style="width:150px;height:48px;border:1px #FF0000 solid;background-color:#000000"><P><FONT style="font-size:13px" color="#FF0000" face="Arial">See Something wrong <U>Click Here</U></FONT></P></BUTTON>
</DIV>[/code]
Edit it to ur likings!!

Some how I don't think that a refresh button has anything to do with the original question.  I think a no-cache in the header would do the trick though.  Simply what it would do is keep the browser from caching the contents of the page.

[brown2005]

how do u do that then mate, please?

any of these will do the trick. Or all of them if you wnat to be sure

session_cache_expire( 0 );
session_cache_limiter( "nocache" );
header("Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT");
header("Last-Modified: " . gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s") . " GMT");
header("Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate");
header("Cache-Control: post-check=0, pre-check=0", false);
header("Pragma: no-cache");
