The transparent caching problem with Freeserve also applies with BT
Openworld. I've not been able to establish whether its specifically related
to ADSL users, as I'm still waiting a return phone call from Freeserve on
this matter. I do know its a real pain not being able to see how updated
pages perform 'live' as opposed to locally, and I guess I'm going to have to
find some way of resolving the problem. I got some code previously that
worked fine in IE but caused problems with Netscape and Macs!

Hmm, I'm confused or maybe it's just the way I read it but, and correct me
if I'm wrong, I can use Freeserve any time to upload to my sites (I'm using
Fasthosts too) and they are updated immediately (unless I don't use
refresh,(ah that might be why my record updates aren't working)). Is the
cache thing just an ADSL problem then? Which makes me wonder, apart from
the fast upload and download, major bonus, whether it's worth getting ADSL
with Freeserve, if your working isn't the fact you can't see your updates a
bit of a bummer.

This, ofcourse, is a complete pain in the proverbial - when I first
encountered it,I spent a complete afternoon uploading, downloading, cursing,
etc trying tofigure out the cause.According to Freeserve I can add some code
into each page that will preventtheir servers from caching the pages, or
will limit the amount of time theirservers will cache the pages for?
Needless to say they don't know what thecode is!Does anybody out there know
about this, or has encountered similar problemsand know of a way of
resolving them?!Thanks for any help.CheersKerry
