Allrighty, friends…here’s the deal.
Dynamic flash site. Data is loaded from a text file and movieclip properties change based on the value of the variables.
Problem: It would appear that the swf is being chached by the browser. If I change the text file and hit refresh, the site will not reflect the new changes. (I have an article somewhere about preventing chaching of variables, but don’t have it with me right now…)

that’s the ticket. I knew I had that info somewhere. Never dawned on me that I saw that right here. Thanks, H88…
