when i update a .swf file on a website and publish it the browser will not show the latest version and will show a earlier cached version, even after ive refreshed the page, and or deleted my temperoray internet files within IE.

is this something to do with my webserver?

also tried the no-cache tag without any luck - <META HTTP-EQUIV="PRAGMA" CONTENT="NO-CACHE">

any clues???

Try Ctrl-F5 which forces a refresh of all objects.

If your ISP uses transparent caching (e.g. freeserve) you may need a few hits of ctrl-F5 to persuade the caches that, yes, you really really wanted a fresh copy of it.

I used to have problems with NTL, no matter how much I hit F5 old versions of flash/images infact entire pages would not update, sometimes Id have to wait 24 hours until it did
