Right. The browser is caching the file. If you want to bypass the cache,
you have to change the name in an innocuous way, with a ? :

load myfliles.jmol?2234902394

the server needs to not care about the "?" query business and return the
.jmol file anyway. the browser will cache the files as different temporary
files.

Virtualization & Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning
Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing 
also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service.
