changes not "sticking"
I installed Zope on an NT Server machine - everything seemed to work OK. Then, from another computer running Internet Explorer, I logged on to the management interface to try to set up a new web site. It asked for a name and password (there's just the one original one right now), which I entered and it accepted. So far, so good. I created a new folder under the root, and proceeded to edit the index_html file. When I click the "Change" button, the screen refreshes with the new DTML code. However, after going through several cycles of this, I used the tree view in the left frame to navigate elsewhere, then to navigate back to the site I created, but the index_html file had its original, default contents! I've tried this several times, each time with the same results. It seems to me that I had not encountered this problem when I went through the Zope tutorial initially; however, that was while sitting at the machine Zope was installed on, and using the "localhost" style URL. When I get home this evening (the Zope machine is there), I will check to see if everything still works that way, but I thought I'd see if either I'm doing something wrong, or anyone has encountered this problem before.
Trying refreshing the page that seems to have to old info on it instead of navigating to it. If you changes show up it a browser cacheing thing.

Just a follow-on to this message. It turns out that the Zope database was correctly updated when I made changes, but apparently when I "View" the page, or navigate back to the "Edit" screen, my browser (IE 4.something on Mac OS) was displaying a cached copy of the page. If I "Refresh" the frame, the correct data is displayed. I haven't yet figured out if I can configure the browser to prevent this. This problem, however, doesn't happen under IE 5.0 running on Windows NT.
