look up clearCache

I guess I should have looked it up first


thanks Colin

It still does raise the right issues, which is if you do a getnettext() twice, is the new one a cached one or is it reloaded from scratch? My bet is that it's reloaded, because I've done a lot of getnettext's to CGI like addresses, and can easily tell that it is coming back as a fresh load each time by making changes on the server side.

Maybe. It's also possible it's being cached after all. There is no harm done in trying clearCache to see if this fixes Paul's problem, however unlikely it may seem according to the documentation. (Or should I point out how often the docs are wrong?)


Additionally if Paul's machine is running behind a proxy, the proxy server could be doing its *own* caching further up the pipe, making it impossible for *any* correction to be done on the local system.
