Post by thread:[OT]: help viewing site

Would someone please mind taking a look at http://www.orbitcoms.com and telling me what options are available. Someone says they see a "products" page option. We deleted that ages ago. All the products should only be accessible via their own category. Thanks Regards David Huisman -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The PICList is archived three different ways.

Patrick, Thanks for the feedback. Can you please give me a description of what you see. It should be pull down menu on left, small graphic next to each product group. Someone in NZ is seeing a previous HTML page that should not be there. There should be no navigation option called "Products" Regards David -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The PICList is archived three different ways. See http://www.piclist.com/#archives for details.

It might be a cache thing. My linux box will show me the same Yahoo page for weeks if I don't hit 'refresh'. That's the kfm browser, by the way.

Well, then it's probably cached somewhere, either in the users browser, or in his ISP's proxy. ----- Original Message ----- From: "David Huisman" <spam_OUTdavid.huismanTakeThisOuTADVMININGTECH.COM.AU> To: <.....PICLISTKILLspam@spam@MITVMA.MIT.EDU> Sent: Thursday, January 14, 1999 9:25 AM Subject: Re: [OT]: help viewing site {Quote hidden}> Patrick, > > Thanks for the feedback.

With regard to your questions. The TRX2905-WC01 needs no additional components. It provides a PC interface via RS232, RS485, TTL, 6 Digital IO and 4 Analog inputs. This module is currently being upgraded: The new version motherboard will accept all the RF modules(TRX2905 -433MHZ FSK, TRX402 Dual Channel FSK, BT1074 Spread Spectrum(900MHz) and a new TRX605 long range 433MHZ, ASK device) as plug in items rather than having them soldered to the PCB. It will also have SPI interface to external devices such as memory, 12 bit ADC etc. The cost of the new motherboard (PIC 16F876 based) with the RF module will be the same as the current TRX2905-WC01 for the time being. Most of the modules are half duplex. The controller incorporates firmware to control over-air data transfer and networking capability as well as access to the IO ports on any other node.

Barry, Thanks for the feedback. I asked the NZ guy to press refresh but he still sees the old page ? Maybe I did not delete all the old html pages and a search engine has directed him directly to the old page ? If he accesses the index.html, he should only see the new page. Regards David Huisman -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The PICList is archived three different ways. See http://www.piclist.com/#archives for details.

Well each browser is different. But you should be able to see in the address bar, the URL of what he is looking at. It is possible to have an index.htm and an index.html both in the same directory, by the way. Also INDEX.HTML, somewhere there's an OS that pays attention to case. I tried to look into your site with ftp but I got taken to a separate area. But you might be able to look into it yourself and see just what files are there. >I asked the NZ guy to press refresh but he still sees the old page ? > >Maybe I did not delete all the old html pages and a search engine has >directed him directly to the old page ? > >If he accesses the index.html, he should only see the new page. > >Regards >David Huisman -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The PICList is archived three different ways.

Have him hold down the CTRL key when he clicks on refresh. If he is using IE this will force the page to reload from the server. I believe this will also work with Netscape. However, if it(the web page) is being cached somewhere along the internet in between, this may not work. I am using IE5.02SP2 and in the Wireless Video section of your page I see this: Real-time wireless transmission of Video. Approved for license-free use in the UK and internationally.

Don't forget the possibility of (misbehaving) web cache engines and or proxy servers... BillW -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The PICList is archived three different ways.

Looks OK from here.

Hi Dave, You may already have done this, but one thing you might want to try is to manually delete the old html files, and then copy over the new pages (as opposed to just copying over what is on the server). I know it shouldn't make a bit of difference what way you carry out this operation, but I ran into a problem like this with my ISP and the cache servers employed by ntl in the UK - it didn't refresh the page to the new version (no matter how many browser refreshes had been carried out) properly on an ntl connection until I had carried out the procedure above. Perhaps some cache/proxy servers operate by looking at the file creation date rather than the modified date? > {Original Message removed}
