Well, something is fishy there. Java is caching files, your browser is
caching files. Files read by an applet are not necessarily cached the same
was as other files. My guess is that it's really not going back to the
server to get the file with the same name. In order to circumvent that, you
might add a parameter to the file name that changes. For example, instead of
load "myfile.pdb"
use
load "myfile.pdb?adlkj24t6"
That should force the browser to reload the information from the server. Or,
if you are accessing a page that gets popped up, add something like that to
the page reference.
