I'm trying to do an update to a customer's website via a CSS change. The files are landing on the server properly, but when I try to load the site in a browser I am seeing yesterday's CSS file.

I have tried clearing the cache several times and have also tried it in several different browsers but the old CSS file continues to be the one being served up. I have made sure I am not using an proxy server on the browser but bugger me, I just can't get the latest file to show up.

I suspect that the only thing that can be causing this is that the ISP is serving up cached site pages. How can I check this?
 
Well, my webdesign education continues.

Thanks Bwana, that seems to have done the trick. I honestly thought I was going insane. It just wouldn't bring up the new CSS at all.
 
Now I'm having the same problem again, with the same website. I just cannot get the new CSS to load. ???
 
What cms are you working on? Most will have a "clear cache" command hidden somewhere in the admin section.
 
I use WordPress for all my customer sites and I don't have this problem. It's only on this site that I seem to be having an issue and it's only with CSS.

I can update any of the templates and they reflect immediately, but when I look to change CSS it simply refuses to load the latest file. I have checked on the server and the newest file is there. This is freaking me out.
 
I have a similar problem but with a page that is supposed to allow the viewer to download a self-extracting zip file.
I updated the Zip file, but, no matter what I do, I cannot get my browser to download the new one.
I asked someone else to go to the site, and they get the new file??? How does this work?
