I am making changes to an XML file (and the only way I can, unless anyone knows how in
PHP I can write TO an XML file!!! is to use a TCL CGI script to write to the XML
file), once changes have been made I need to reopen the file and read its contents,
however, every time I do I am getting OLD file information and NOT my changes, every
single time, unless I refresh my page...
Does anyone know what I can do about this? I can't redirect them, that would be
horribly inefficient.. what can I do?
Thanx
Phil
