authoritative DNS

The problem isn't with the cache - it's definitely their authoritative DNS on their end. The weird thing was how it worked for me on their computer on Monday.

But I'm working with the campus webmaster to get the problem fixed.

Thanks.

Cache fixing

We have cache problems all the time when we do amendments for clients' websites.

There are a couple of useful shortcuts that are fairly helpful in trying to re-load a page and clear the cache at the same time.

In IE - click on Ctrl F5
In Netscape - click on Shift and Reload

I'm not sure this will overcome this particular problem, but it's worth a try and hopefully it'll help others that have this same persistent problem.

You're saying that you are able to view these pages on almost every computer _except_ this one, correct? If you got it to display correctly last night, it seems like it should have came up fine today as well. Did you change anything since last night that might have caused the error?

The best thing to do would be to clear out the temporary internet files, as well as the history in Internet Explorer... Theoretically, that should fix the problem. I haven't heard of any issues with caching on Windows 2000, but you might try installing another browser and seeing if it is viewable through that.

Good luck,

Brian
