Problems with publishing

[Guest]

i have recently started to use FP03 and downloaded my companies whole site,
can work with it etc but im faced with one problem.

i can create new webpages that get published on the web without a problem.
i can change existing websites that do not have .html ending.
and i can upload files to the server.

but any changes that i make to any webpage with a .html doesnt seem to
chance. can anyone help me!!

Thanks in advance

Have you refreshed your browser and cleared the browser cache?
Are you using AOL which will cache .html files in their proxy servers
for up to 2 days before updating? Some other ISPs and servers will do
this as well (though usually updates are more frequent).

Try browsing to a .html file and adding a ? after the URL, example:
http://www.example.com/pagename.html?

yeah did all of that. For some reason it keeps not showing what i change...
but if i use a different internet connection ie from home all of my changes
show up.

while if i work from home my changes show up instantly

Sounds like your internet service provider (ISP) where you do the
changes are caching the pages on a proxy server.
Note that the web site host (WPP) and internet service provider (ISP)
are often NOT the same company - the ISP provides the connection to the
internet - this may be AOL, BT, your company network, or A.N.Other.
Adding the ? to the URL usually breaks through such caches.
Have you tried Ctrl+F5 which should force a refresh through a caching
proxy, or try pagename.htm?a=b - this may be better.
