I tried using Firefox, and got the same result. I also tried using shift + reload. Also, It looks like Tomcat is already configured to reload the jsp's. (below is from the server.xml file).

(The jsp file tmestamp is definately showing as changed when I telnet to the server - I thought Tomcat automatically recompiled the classes when it detected a changed timestamp). --- Rizwan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > This is usually a problem with IE, it caches your pages for you.
