I haven't noticed the new preference, how does it work?Does it turn on and off the mod date checking so that during site development we can turn the mod date checking ON, but after development it can be turned OFF so as to not check the mod dates anymore -- since the files will no longer be changed until we upload new/replacement files or modify existing files?Or if that's not how it works, how does it work?Sincerely, Ken Grome ken@iav.com 808-737-6499 WebDNA Solutions http://webdna.net/ Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
