Need http help.

 [1/5] from: brett:codeconscious at: 17-Apr-2001 0:12


Rebol gets an old version of a file from my website while Netscape gets the new version. For me print read http://www.codeconscious.com/index.r displays a different file for the same location in Netscape. Anything I can do to solve this? Thanks Brett Handley. --- http://www.codeconscious.com

REBOL does not cache direct reads to HTTP, so the problem must be on the network or server side. Is your site redirecting web pages? -Carl

I have a similar problem. My ISP aggressively caches my pages, and I get the old files in both Rebol and IE. I have to switch to a different ISP to see changes :-( -- Graham Chiu

Yeah, suspecting proxies. But I do actually get the correct file in IE and Netscape (after Refresh), it is just Rebol with problem now - but it needs to do at least as good as the other two at getting the correct file.... Brett.

Nothing I've done as far as I'm aware. I also have the exact same problem with www.rebolforces.com/index.r and the Arix site. Larry's site works fine. Interestingly I actually got View desktop to work (last night my time) by lots of ctrl-shift-refresh in Explorer. But this morning it is back to the same problem.....! Indicating maybe the ISP's transparent proxies (I don't know just guessing wildly). But, if I can get the right page with Netscape is there a proxy-refresh / no-cache command for Rebol? Brett.
