They're indentical pages. After I pressed the [link to C], the right frame is updated and changes from 'B' to 'C'. *** But when I press the RELOAD button in my browsers, 's page (using Apache web server) changes to original frames, i.e. left frame = A and right frame = B But it's ok for 's page (using Netscape Server) which load the page with last updated frames, i.e. left frame = A and right frame = C This is quite a basic but serious problem. I've got a commercial web site running on Apache's server which is going to have frames added. But I don't want my users to be forced to go back to the first page and click everything once again every time they press the RELOAD button. I'd be most grateful if you could give me a quick response on this problem so that I can determine about the future of my web site. Thank you very much!!

One is setting a Last-modified, one isn't. The one with no last modified is likely parsing all the documents as SSI with mod_include. This causes Netscape not to cache them. It is a Netscape issue, not an Apache issue.
