Now, how do I ensure that view.php always > gets the "fresh" image every time? I probably explained this poorly. The main point I was trying to make is that images are completely separate resources. They are not part of a page as you seem to be thinking, even though they appear to be once rendered in your browser. While a request for view.php results in a response that includes all of those headers you explicitly set, a request for blah.jpg gets returned by the Web server directly. It is probably being cached by the browser. However, the Web client usually includes an If-Modified-Since header that will cause the Web server to return a fresh resource if it has in fact been modified. Is there a way you can show us the HTTP transactions for the image in question both before and after it has been modified? Chris
