i have recently changed some pages for a website i maintain, and can view the changes from frontpage by choosing 'preview in browser', or see the changes by opening the htm page. however if i view the webpage via the internet, i can't see the changes, only the page as it was before. i have tried all the usual stuff like emptying the internet cache, cookies, history etc..both my pc's on my cable link do the same thing, but when i contacted the isp, they said they could see the changes...is there a setting i'm missing? i'm using frontpage 2000, ws_ftp pro, winXP...

Check the folders where you upload the files to, some ISP can have a main WWW folder, as well as WWW folders under each user (email account user) .

The files should be in the main WWW folder or they wont show, use WS-FTP to browse your FTP site and see whats inside each folder.

the folder i upload the pages to is just the root folder, and images are in a folder called 'images' etc.. i have just rung a friend, and they have checked the site, and can see the changes..all i can think of is there is a setting somewhere in IE that is causing this, although one of the PC's i've tried here has almost a clean load on it..

umm.. this can happen , if your ISP cache the pages, sometime will take 24 hrs for the pages to refresh on their servers.

but the isp can see the changes..it's only my pc's that can't..i havn't had this problem before, as i was doing changes 2 days ago with no problems..i've also tried a system restore but that didn't work either
