I have since checked with the website host and there is no
caching on the webserver. However, they suggest that the ISP
might be caching files. If this is the case, it would seem
that the Request->Pragma = "no-cache" doesn't work in this
situation.
I have also found that after a day, the new file is downloaded
so the cache must be purged after a day. I suppose I can live
with this, but it would be nice to be in control of the
situation.
