I have a simple web page with a single table holding 10 jpeg images from
webcams. SM 2.15 and previously, I could click on the "reload" icon, and
it would pull in the latest images. With 2.16, that does not reload the
page. Shift+click the "reload icon does not force a reload; neither does
shift+ctrl R.

If I right-click, then view image, the image will be the newest one;
returning to the page and clicking Reload will than show the new image.

If I clear the cache, clicking the reload icon will reload the page.

All my other web pages seem to reload normally when I click the reload
icon.

How can I get the page to reload when I click the reload icon?


This should be controlled by Preferences -> Advanced -> Cache ->
"Compare the page in the cache to the page on the network".  I have this
set to "When the page is out of date" but that may rely on the html
<META HTTP-EQUIV="EXPIRES" value being set correctly.

The cache setting is set to "every time I view the page", same as it was
in 2.15. There is no META HTTP-EQUIV="EXPIRES", and never was any.
Exactly what should the line be, and how do I set the value?

But, I don't think it's the web page, since it used to work properly;
also, it works properly in IE8, refreshing when I click the refresh icon.

What is really puzzling is shift+ctrl+r does not force a refresh. That's
very different behavior from past versions.


I use that Meta tag at work for a web-page which is updated just before midnight every night but I can't remember what it looks like at the moment and it is on an internal network. It does not matter though, your Cache setting should not allow the problem to happen in the first place. Sounds a bit like as though it could be a bug.
