In uploading files with FileZilla, it often happens that, although FileZilla seems to overwrite old versions of uploaded files, the old version persists when I view the file with Firefox. This happens even though I press the shift key while reading the file into Firefox.
Can anyone explain why this happens and how to fix the problem.
With thanks,
Gerry

Re: Problem replacing old file
Your hosting provider might do server-side caching of some sort. This is often the case with load balancing. New files uploaded by you are a cache miss and will load normally, but, overwritten files will still be a cache hit and the server will load them from the cache for some time. Eventually, the cache will be refreshed and use the newer files.
