changes are not being reflected in the javascript file

[Prasad Kharkar]

Hello all

I am doing a simple project in JSP and Servlets using eclipse
I have included a file submit.js in that and it worked fine till yesterday

today I made changes in it, they are getting saved in eclipse but when I start the web project
in the web application, the javascript I got is the previous one

then I refreshed the project, restarted tomcat, but no use at all

then for just checking , I completely deleted the file from the project but it is still working
means, firefox is successfully linking to the javascript file and showing the PREVIOUS code

but when I open that in internet explorer then the file is not found

what is the problem?

is it with firefox?

please help

have a nice time

husshh !!
Solved it by clearing the cache in firefox

but I have another query
I want to go to some page after the javascript function is called

I wrote the following code but it is not working
what should I do to correct it?
function endExam() { var answer = confirm("Do you want to end exam?"); if(answer){ submitForm(); window.location = "http://localhost:8080/OCPJPSimulator/JSPs/MarkedQuestionsPage.jsp"; return true; }else{ return false; } } function submitForm() { document.forms['QuestionForm'].submit(); }

You can not do that.

The form submission posts back to the server so that action is in a race condition with setting the page location. You should do the redirection to that page on the serverside with the form submission.
