Why has one page suddenly stopped working?

we have a problem that has got our web developer
stumped....and i'd really appreciate it if someone could shine some
light on possible reasons.
The page in question is the "Where to Buy" page which lists
links to our suppliers. Its worked perfectly for years until
recently when, even though the file is updating correctly on the
server, its not updating when the page is viewed in a browser.
I have downloaded the file onto three separate computers,
using different net connections (in different towns even!). The
downloaded file shows the correct info yet the only version that
appears on the web is an old version that has inaccurate info.
I have tried uploading the files back to the server but same
result. i have also tried loading other info to the server and that
does work in the browsers.
What should i be looking for to try solve this puzzle?
thanks in advance
adam

It sounds like the page has somehow got stuck in the cache of
a server
somewhere. Delete the file from the server, and then call the
page.
Hopefullt you should then get a 404 error. Then FTP the page
back. This
should hopefully clear out the cache.

  • Why has .mac email suddenly stopped working on my PowerPC G5?

    It's worked fine for a couple of years and now it asks for my password, which it will not acknowledge.   I checked my .mac account settings, etc and all seems fine.  The .mac account runs fine on my phone and thru iCloud.  But now not on my desktop.
    They're killing off MobileMe and I noticed that my desktop won't sync anymore with that either.  Related?    It appears that you will need OSX Lion to function fully with iCloud.    Let's see, I'm only 13 OSX upgrades behind........

    Please help!
    My email has stopped working on my HTC evo.
    It's done this before and i went to settings and followed these instructions then it worked great for a few months but now I can not receive email. I can send but incoming does not work.
    the WARNING says  your incoming server does not support SSL
    this is what i followed last time, but it doesnt work now

  • Why has my iMessage suddenly stopped working?

    Does anyone have any idea why my iPhone 5 (iOS 6.1.3) has suddenly decided to stop sending iMessages? When I try and send an iMessage I keep getting a pop up box telling me that I need to have iMessage activated, yet when I go into Settings/Messages the iMessage option is switched on. Also when I send a message to another user that I know for a fact has iMessage, the message bubble does not turn blue. What's going on??

  • Why has my iPhone suddenly stopped working?

    I was in the middle of reading a text this morning when my iPhone suddenly turned off. Now, the screen is black and my computer won't even recognize it when it's plugged in. The battery should not be dead because it was charged over night and it does not turn on even after being plugged in for awhile. I didn't drop it or spill anything on it before it broke, the screen just suddenly went black. Has this happened to anyone else. Any suggestions on what to do?? Also, I haven't updated my iPhone  to iOS 5 yet if that's relevant.

    Contact 3 asap you may have been frozen because of inadvertant excessive
    data use or more.
    All you can eat does NOT apply overseas
    AND if you did not enable roaming they will certainly believe your iPhone has been stolen
    and taken out of the country

  • Links to excel file on safari page suddenly stopped working, but work in firefox.  Happened yesterday. Help!

    I have a webpage with links mapped from an icon to two excel files. They aren't working. I checked the html. it is identical to two links to .png files and the location is correct, but nothing happens when you click the link.  I have reset, emptied cache and thrown out the plists,
    The html reads:
    <img usemap="#Curio_Map" src="Steps%20in%20Detail(3D691625).png" />
    <map name="Curio_Map">
    <area href="Assets/7B8E04AB/Strategic%20Planning%20Detail%20Dairy.xlsx" shape="polygon" coords="455,66 844,66 844,296 455,296" >
    <area href="Assets/18C769C4/Initial%20questions%20for%20Strategic%20Planning.xls" shape="polygon" coords="14,71 431,71 431,293 14,293" >
    </map>
    The Assets folder is in the same folder as the index.html page with frames and the page within the frame. 
    The html for the .png files that do work is:
    <img usemap="#Curio_Map" src="Supporting%20Doc(698C969A).png" />
    <map name="Curio_Map">
    <area href="Assets/9D8D3352/P%20of%20PDSA%20Altresco.pdf" shape="polygon" coords="22,126 102,126 102,192 22,192" >
    <area href="Assets/F5E05A53/Access%20Environment%20Altresco.png" shape="polygon" coords="21,45 103,45 103,88 21,88" >
    </map>
    Look the same to me!  Why does one work and the other not, and why did it happen all of a sudden?  Any thoughts?

  • Topic: Why has this simple midlet stopped working?!!

    I have a midlet which was working fine, but now gives the error, 'No such method getTitle.()Ljava/lang/String;'.
    I have now created a very simple test midlet that includes the problematic line of code:
    import javax.microedition.midlet.*;
    import javax.microedition.lcdui.*;
    public class GetTitleTestMIDlet extends javax.microedition.midlet.MIDlet implements CommandListener {
        public void startApp() {
            Form f = new Form("Test");
            f.setCommandListener(this);
            Command com = new Command("OK", Command.OK, 0);
            f.addCommand(com);
            Display.getDisplay(this).setCurrent(f);
        public void pauseApp() {
        public void destroyApp(boolean unconditional) {
        public void commandAction(Command c, Displayable d) {
            String cLabel = c.getLabel();
            String dTitle = null;
            if (d instanceof Screen) {
                dTitle = ((Screen)d).getTitle(); //****** THIS LINE IS THE PROB
            else {
                dTitle = "(Canvas)";
    }It is the line, 'dTitle = ((Screen)d).getTitle();' that is giving the error message. It happens both on Sun ONE Studio 4 and with JBuilder with Nokia and Siemens emulators.
    Everything used to work fine. All I have done since it last worked is create a couple of JApplets and JFrame classes in Sun ONE Studio 4. I have noticed that the 'Explorer [Filesystems]' view in Sun ONE Studio 4 has changed in appearance since the midlet last worked, but there are no other clues.
    It must be something to do with my setup rather than my code.
    Can anyone please help!
    Cheers,
    James

    The problem was with the compiler. It stopped working for some reason... Once I downloaded Wireless Toolkit 1 again, and compiled again, it worked!
    Not sure why it stopped working. The only unusual thing I had done prior to it going wrong was adding several emulator instances in SUN One Studio 4 - maybe it didn't like that.

  • Why did my iMessage suddenly stopped working?

    My iMessage was working fine and it suddenly stopped a couple weeks ago. I am still able to send messages to people, but I am unable to recieve messages from iphone users (I can text freely with androids). I noticed that at first my imessage will send as a blue, but after a couple seconds it turns green. I tried turning off my imessage, and turning it baclk on to which I was prompted to relogin to my apple account. When I tried to login it would keep saying that I had the wrong password (which I am very sure was not the case). My apple store still works, but I am unsure why my imessage doesnt. Does anyone know a solution for this?
    **I am currently operating on ios 7.0.4 could this be the case?

    If it is displaying "incorrect password" when signing into iMessage, why exactly do you believe the is incorrect?
    Enter the correct login credentials.  Until this occurs, iMessage will not re-activate.
