Hi Jamileh, Here's a tip that is usually helpful:
In most versions of MSIE, using the "Refresh" button from the toolbar triggers MSIE to reload the latest 'cached' content from the "Temporary Internet Files" folder on the user's computer. Typically MSIE will determine cache rules on it's own and usually errors on the side of caution and cache things longer than usual. But....if you right-click on your page and choose "Refresh" from the popup context menu, it will usually override this and get the latest content (that has not expired yet) from your LAN proxy cache (if you have one). I find this a bit more helpful, because most proxies will expire content when they are supposed to. Learning everything you can about expiring your TAF output via the Local$httpHeader is very important with dynamic applications. As for your CSV thing, try putting the <@assign name="httpHeader" .....> tag on the very first line of the last Results Window in your TAF - and on the same line put <@PURGERESULTS> and your CSV output variable afterwards. This will eliminate any garbage spaces and such. Oh, and turn debugging off in the file. Hope this helps.

(That would be easier over the phone than changing IE settings). On the csv problem, in the WriteFile.taf, I'm doing this: <@assign name="httpHeader" scope="local" value="Content-Type: <@var local$filetype><@crlf>Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=<@dq><@var local$IncomingRFName><@dq><@crlf><@userreferencecookie><@crlf>"> Thank you!! > -----Original Message----- > From: Phil Wade [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Thursday, February 06, 2003 4:23 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: Witango-Talk: User Woes > > > Jamileh, > Try turning the cache in IE to check for changes "every visit > to the page".
