GMT"); header("Expires: Mon, 19 Mar 1999 08:00:00 GMT"); header("Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate"); header("Pragma: no-cache"); Aaah, so it's a caching issue then. Is that particular content using PHP's caching mechanism or is it simply the browser's cache settings mucking things up? AJAX techniques run into the browser cache issue all the time (not that your doing anything with AJAX here). One way to get around this is by putting a random value in the querystring when calling a script by and HTTP JavaScript call. Maybe by borrowing this concept and put a random value in the querystring (that servers no purpose) will fool the browser and load the new content. -----Original Message----- From: Alf Stockton [mailto:alf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, May 04, 2007 10:02 AM To: php windows Subject: Re: Reload/refresh web page Bill Bolte wrote: Why isn't it being retrieved the first time the page is called? It is but the page I need to reload is a dynamic page that may be used as a menu to call another php that would be used to update a database contents of which were displayed on the original page and on return to the dynamic page I want this new data to be included.
