Hi
I encounter a strange problem with a link in hand-coded HTML pointing at a directory in the directory tree.
I allow the owner of a site to upload images to a specific directory in the tree. I created a custom page for links to "editing" pages with a link like this:
<a href="/shopping/pictures/manage_main" target="_blank" title="Show pictures directory">Show pictures directory</a>
When the page is rendered in either IE5, IE6 or Mozilla, the link suddenly shows as: /shopping/pictures/manage_workspace (manage_main replace by manage_workspace)
Did you ever have it as manage_main? If you did, then you can be sure that the problem is cacheing. If you're using ZEO, be sure not to use the 2.0b series, it had a cacheing bug. Otherwise, it's your browser, or a cacheing proxy between zope and the browser, but you didn't mention that.
I tried clearing the browser cache, also coded the link absolute with domain.
I have had IE lie to me before. e.g. re-writing source code in the "show source" view. It's my first suspect in all such problems. Clearing the cache is not sufficient if you're currently viewing the page, for some reason.
In Safari, it works fine. No re-write, link appears as coded and works!
browser issues for sure then.
Has somebody encountered this?
