Are you serving this content yourself from your web server? If so there are "cb" (cache busting) methods already well worked out. e.g. logo.jpg # on disk logo-cb123455678.jpg # in the html code and mod-rewrite handles the translation back to the original image. So you can update "logo.jpg"

I had the DNS caching problem in one project. We had to resort to the "?" trick. Without it, different computers or browsers would all load the older file, which usually didn't update for 24 hours. -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | jac...@hyperactivesw.com HyperActive Software

I see where you're going with that, and yeah I believe the mutating url would get around a dns cache. Cool!(you can also do it with #134143.. I believe. There were posts re: this in the forum way back.) On Mon, Feb 6, 2017 at 9:45 AM, Bob Sneidar via use-livecode <

Right. But that is the browser cache. If you are talking about a url resolving to a different site, that is a function of DNS, which is totally separate from the browser cache the browser maintains. I do not think the browser is capable of bypassing DNS caching. But maybe I misunderstand the

In an actual browser (at least as far as I know) one doesn't have to resort to tricks. Like in chrome, ctrl-f5 bipasses cache and reloads. More info here. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bypass_your_cache On Mon, Feb 6, 2017 at 9:01 AM, Bob Sneidar via use-livecode <

Old site? This may be DNS caching not browser caching. Clear the cache on your computer, and if possible, if you have a local DNS server, clear that cache as well. Bob S > On Feb 5, 2017, at 12:16 , JOHN PATTEN via use-livecode > wrote: > > Hi Bill, > > Did

if just tacking on a ? at the end doesn't work, do this instead. Tack on the ?dummyvar=1234125 where 1234125 is "the seconds." That way its always a unique url and should do a fresh load. On Sun, Feb 5, 2017 at 1:44 PM, Sannyasin Brahmanathaswami via use-livecode
