Deleted pages still being requested?

I had a form called email.htm that (surprise surprise)
emailed a form to a customer. I am now using ColdFusion
just because it gives me more control over the email.
That page is also called email, but instead of htm, it is
cfm extension.

What happens is that from time to time when I test the
email option on the page, the old htm file gets requested
from my browser, and obviously errors out because it
doesn't exist on the server anymore.

Why is the old page getting called every once in a
while? What can be done to stop this?

Steve

Clear your browser cache
- also possible your host still has it cached

check for every reference to that file in your form...check all your links to
make sure none are linking to "email.htm". Is email.htm the page with the form
on it?

People may have bookmarked that page specifically in their system and of course
go back to the bookmarked old page, rather than the new one. Maybe you should be
a redirect meta tag in the email.htm redirecting to email.cfm.
