Hi William,

You need to generate your images with unique names for many reasons, the refresh issue being only one. Browser cache images, so it's generally a really bad idea to overwrite an existing image with a new one if you want to display the new image. The other reason is that if you use the same filename and you hve more than one user on they might clobber each other's files.

The other option is to feed the data directly out of the database. Rather than dump to disk and store the file, make the link to the image dynamic and send the dynamic image back. This has the advantage that you don't need to deal with file cleanup.

Regards,

+++ Rick ---
