Hi, Imar.
I am working with the Beg ASP.NET 3.5 book. I have downloaded and worked through a good part of the code using VS 2008.
Then I have started a web site using VS2010 and building for ASP.NET 4.
For the time being, I use Monochrome.css from the book.
What troubles me is the fact that changes/additions I make to the CSS file do not necessarily show up in the browser, either late or not at all.
It is as if the old value is cached and the new value does not get used. Maybe styles are overwritten somewhere. After all, these are cascating style sheets!
How can I force the browser to use the new content?

Your book has been very useful. Most of my experience has been with Windows Forms, but I am trying to learn ASP.NET and Web programming.
I am switching to VS2010 and .NET Framework 4. I have already ordered your Beg ASP.NET 4 book, which should arrive in a few days.
It seems to me, though, that this problem has nothing to do with VS2010 or ASP.NET 4.

Any comment would be appreciated.

Regards,
Gudni Sigurdsson

Hi Gudni,

Good to hear you find the book so useful.

To force the browser to get a fresh copy of the CSS file, use CTRL+F5 or CTRL+R in your browser.

Hope this helps,

Imar
