when image changes imagUrl shows old image. 1

[tango1948]

Hi
I have an aspx form with a hyperlink. The imageUrl is a document relative gif file.
If I change the image (but not the file name) the old image still appears on the form even though it no longer exists in the directory.
Why is this and how can I get the new image to appear.

Thanks for any help

David

That's because your browser caches images so they don't have to be downloaded each time. The easist method is just to clear your browsers cache.

Alternatively, append a random querystring value onto the endo of your image name and as it changes each time your browser will think it is a different image and request it each time.
