I test my ASP pages using IIS 6.0 and often all the pages do not reflect the changes immediately.

Sometimes, there are miracles, they are reflected, but for most of the time they are not.

Any ideas what is wrong?

I have tried the following solutions and they don't seem to help either!

1. Uninstalled IIS and re-installed it

2. Tested the pages with simple Response.Write statements to check. (Guess what!, even this at times, tends to behave the way I mentioned above)

Please let me know if anyone has faced such problems with IIS or have any ideas on solution to my problem!

Guess it caches your pages... have a look at the settings, maybe you can turn off caching.

I have had similiear expieriences with apache2 and mod_python; restarting apache was the ugly solution I founds - it deletes all cache (caching is what makes mod_python fast - Microsoft may have included some hidden caching... I wouldn't know)
Either Windows or VS.net include a service CP with which it should be trivial to quickly restart IIS if needed...

I have tried restarting ....no use!
Anyone with anything more specific and different?

I don't know PHP, but will be learning it in due course of time. But, the problem right now is, I have to use ASP and IIS isn't functioning the way it should.

Kindly suggest or direct me to resources, where it will be really easy to diagnose, what the problem really is and how do I solve it!

Perhaps it is your browser cache. A handy tip is to Shift+Click the refresh button to force downloading of everything on the page.

usually the problem is your browser cache, not the server. A friend of mine said that there is a way to make sure this doesnt happen by having a javascript thing load each page when your developing instead of string HTML or perl or whatever. I've never tried it but it's worth a shot.

Booooze

I remember having this same problem with java applets embedded in a page. Unfortuantly, I can't remember how I solved it. I don't think it was the cache either. You can always try dumping all the temporary stuff. Cookies, Temp file, Temp internet file, recent docs, etc. It's not likely to solve the problem, but many worth a shot.
