Hello All...
I am new to this board and I am really an accidental webmaster. I am currently developing and for lack of resources, maintaining the sites I am on. I am a designer by trade and the only reasons I can maintain the sites I am on (both for non-profit groups, BTW, of which I am part of both) is because they currently do not require the use of any real scripting or data base management. However, that is changing quickly and I will soon be overseeing a programmer that wil help us out there.
In the meantime, I have a question that might seem to be out of ignorance or extremely basic in nature but it is the first problem I have encountered as we are getting ready to get these sites live.
Is there a way to force browsers to reload data whenever they revisit the site? I am not talking about constant updating during a single session, but about having the browser refresh files as they are revisited...We have content that is changing or being added to on a weekly basis and already I am seeing reports of things that have long since been changed and updated.
Thanks.

you can use the meta refresh tag (html) but that will refresh every so many minutes or what ever you set it too.

I'm sure someone else will give you a better answer
<?bhb if(broken){ echo("It wasn't me
"); } ?>
