    Force Refresh

    Obviously I am not the only one who has problems forcing users'/customers' browsers to show the most recentley uploaded page, rather than what the individuals browser has in it's cache.
    I have trawled the forum for a definitive answer , hoping that there actually is one?
    I have placed the following code into the brochure and content pages but it doesn't seem to work.

    <?php
    header("Refresh: 1;");
    ?>


    I have also heard about a meta include which specifies an old date, forcing a referesh but this doesn't seem like a particually good way around the problem as it allows no caching of any page?
    Can anyone suggest a solution, be it server side or included in Actinic code?
    Many thanks

        Hi Simon

        Attached below is what development have to say on this issue

        "This is a function of the web server and browser. If customer's set their browser to refresh automatically then the server will tell the browser that a page has not changed so the browser can use it's cache. If the page has changed then the new page is sent.

        Pages can be delivered with the no-cache header flag which would mean that the page is always sent by the server regardless of whether the page has changed or not but this is a function of the web server. We do it for all pages returned by the scripts but we have no control over the static pages returned by the web server.

        An alternate solution would be to include the NO_CACHE META tags within the <Head> </Head> area of the Primary layout, so no browser will cache the pages"

        Kind Regards
