XML reload from server

    I have the xml flash banner installed in my site. After updating the XML the website does not always reload the new content. I added php to my page to force a no cache but on some computers the old xml file is still there so after doing a refresh the browser reverts to the old XML in the cache. Is there a way to force the reload of the XML file every time someone loads the site?

    Hi,

    We set up a cache buster in the index.html file:
                    
// cache buster
var cacheBuster = "?t=" + Date.parse(new Date());
    You can use that one to download the latest XML file. Just put the cacheBuster variable after the path to the XML path, like this: 
                    
flashvars.xmlPath = "xml/banner.xml" + cacheBuster;

    This should do it.
