    I made a good few changes to a website 10mins ago or so and added a few files. I uploaded them and they show up on the ftp directory but not on the internet browser?!?!

    And yes I cleared ALL my browsing history...

    If I type in the address of an image or js script I uploaded I just get a 404 error.
    Ftr, im using Filezilla as my FTP client.

    Any ideas?

    Yes!! Cookies, Cache, Authenticated Sessions, Browsing History etc etc

    On IE7 and FF3. Also tried it on another computer...
    Could there be a lag on this particualr server between the ftp and http??

    edit: I also re-uploaded the new and changed files.

    I found the problem, I was using the IP address of the server as the Host of the FTP connection. I changed from the IP to the domain of the website and the changes weren't there. Just uploaded there and everything worked fine.

    Should the IP and domain not link to the same area and same files?? Thought this was very strange, anyone know why its happening?

    Sometimes when that happens for me I check with browsershots.org just to check if it's my cache
