<b>People,</b>

Well...this is weird.

I posted an inquiry in a digital recording forum; & wanted to provide a graphic representation of the problem (in the form of an electronic signal plotting.)

I found the plot (which is just a simple black & white graph type image) in the online brochure of the equipment in question's manufacturer...saved it to desktop, opened it in Photoshop, saw that it was a .jpg @ 96 ppi; & saved it as another name.

Then I opened up my personal web site's file in Dreamweaver MX; & on a page I use for art links, created a layer; & placed the image file in the layer. I then uploaded the page (& associated file) to my web server.

Then I went back online, opened up Internet Explorer (6.0), navigated to the site, selected the link to the page...& there is <i>no</i> image.

So now, I right click on an empty portion of the page & bring up the source code for the page. The image is not between &lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;'s!

So now, I log onto my site's administration subsite, access my web directory, view the page's code; & the image file <i>is</i> there...in the layer!, between the &lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;'s.

So this morning, I went to work; & on my office PC went online & navigated to the site...& there's the image!!!

Does anyone have any idea of what this could be? For some reason, this image cannot be viewed on my home PC, yet is available to everyone else?

I thought maybe my web server hadn't refreshed the web directory at first...but the page coding was fine when viewed from that source at that time.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

<b>Update...</b>

Turned out all I needed was a browser "hard refresh" (CtrlF5.) Once I did that, the image popped right up.
