Sounds as if you have changed the options on your browser to cache pages for longer. Or maybe your ISP has started using proxy cache.

John there have recently been a number of postings such as yours from experienced webmasters who certainly know how to update websites and clear cached pages. I also have many years experience and recently had the same problem. I noticed that after 30 minutes or so, the updated page was available. I have a suspicion that this is somehow related to Win 7 operating system, but have yet to sort out the cause. I say this because I never had the problem till I updated my OS

Thanks for the inputs guys. I was looking at the website on my work computer (who knows what the IT department is doing as far a cache/proxy). Anway when I checked it out on my home computer all the chances were there exactly as I expected.

thanks for the tip.

John
