(...) I'm not sure it's for real either...but it can't hurt to try :) Seems like a lot of stuff to set up for a scam, tho. Especially the whole "school" on the main page... --Bram (24 years ago, 18-Aug-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

  Re: Noooooo!!!!!!
 
(...) Cool! I played with this last night. One thing I am really appreciative of is the fact that instead of implementing a separate form of folders or whatnot to keep track of links, this toolbar is just generated from the contents of (...)

  Re: Forced refresh of html pages instead of getting them from browser cache
 
(...) And thank you for it. However in this case, it's a customer requirement that the user, in the ordinary course of events, *never see* the old page. Yes, a clever user can go schlepping around in their cache, and that's OK, but the ordinary user (...) (24 years ago, 15-Aug-00, to lugnet.publish, lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) definite possibility, ibm _loves_ notes. (24 years ago, 15-Aug-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: ibm and novell?

(...) of the other contenders include Sun, Microsoft, AOL, and the Guy Down The Street. Personally, I think it'd be cool if Novell were bought out by TLC, but we're probably not *that* marketable yet. :-P Cheers, - jsproat (24 years ago, 14-Aug-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Forced refresh of html pages instead of getting them from browser cache
 
(...) ...<smile> I think their point is that the user should be always up-to-date, even without knowing it; and without having to realize the page is outdated and reloading. At home I have the page reload every time, but here I can't control (...) (24 years ago, 14-Aug-00, to lugnet.publish, lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Forced refresh of html pages instead of getting them from browser cache
 
(...) Why should they have to do anything? Computers are supposed to make things easier. Telling people that they need to press some seemingly-arcane (to a new user) key combo isn't good user-interace design. (24 years ago, 14-Aug-00, to lugnet.publish, lugnet.off-topic.geek)

  Re: Forced refresh of html pages instead of getting them from browser cache
 
(...) Why not? A simple phrase: Press <Ctrl> and click on "Reload". Why is that not viable? Why is that less viable than any of lots of other keystroke mouse combinations? No offense, but give your users some credit! (24 years ago, 14-Aug-00, to lugnet.publish, lugnet.off-topic.geek)
