RE: [PHP-WIN] Reload/refresh web page

Do a search with AJAX CACHE ISSUE. There are tons of links and it seems to be directed mostly at Internet Explorer. At it simplest, when your user is getting sent back to the page to view, make sure the URL has an extra value in the querystring (if you're passing stuff back already) such as: http://www.somesite.com/originalpage.php?random=nco8agoafnvpqfq4iu You can generate an random value pretty easily - don't have any code right in front of me at the moment. -----Original Message----- From: Alf Stockton [mailto:alf@stockton.co.za] Sent: Friday, May 04, 2007 10:21 AM Cc: php windows Subject: Re: [PHP-WIN] Reload/refresh web page Bill Bolte wrote: > Aaah, so it's a caching issue then.

An example would be good, if you could. -- Regards, Alf Stockton www.stockton.co.za You may be gone tomorrow, but that doesn't mean that you weren't here today.
