>>On a specific page, I am including a stylesheet link reference. However, when that stylesheet page is updated, it is not reflected at the user's side, for those who work with Automatic, as far as the new version.

>>Even, if I include AddForceReload() in the header, this won't affect an included link reference for a stylesheet. So, when working with Automatic, if we do not want IE to do it by itself within a few minutes, we are forced to manually click on Refersh of the browser in order to get the updated version of the stylesheet page. How can I achieve the same from WWC?

That works at 100% so far. But, IMHO, browsers should always get the newer version of any page on a server if the date is more recent than what is in the cache. I never understood that practice by some browsers.

I am convinced that Browsers have a mind of their own! :)
