Archived from groups: alt>www>webmaster (more info?)

I redesigned a site for a client and launched it a week ago. Everyone else
in the world can see the new site (I checked with serveral other people) but
for some reason everyone in the client's office is still seeing the old
version.

I got them to delete their temporary internet files and I even put a line of
'no-cache' code on the home page and deleted all the old files but they
still see the old site.

Is it possible that they are going thru a proxy server that is caching the
old site? I asked one guy to check if proxy was turned on in Internet
Explorer he said no.

This is really weird.

This has happened to me many times when I host websites. It could be an
issue with the DNS. Sometimes the DNS servers to not update and if you have
changed DNS on the domain at all this is most likely the problem.

Here are a few tricks that sometimes work:

1. go into dos (winxp) , type ipconfig /flushdns
2. Sometimes typing www and not typing www in a url can mean the difference
betwen two pages. IE, I change a page, and without www it shows the old
one, with www it shows the new one.

Thanks,
Dan
