It is not iWeb which is displaying your old site, but the server where you have uploaded your files, right?

Are you totally sure you reloaded the new files and not the old ones? Publish your site to your desktop or some totally new location and then make sure Fetch is using those files.

I have deleted files in cyberduck (my FTP software) numerous times, and re-saved my iWeb pages to a new folder on my desktop numerous times and I am still seeing my old site whish is hosted by Yahoo. HELP please.

Can you tell me something which in on the new page but not on the old one ( so I can tell which one I am seeing)?

What files exactly are you uploading? Are you totally sure you are putting them in the right place on Yahoo?

Add a new page to your site, just a blank one, so you can be sure that the new pages are being uploaded.

I just uploaded pages, including a test blank page and it's not on the website---I guess I should call Yahoo again--unless you have a better idea.
thanks

I just spoke to Yahoo and I deleted my cache which allowed me to see the new test page but not the drop shadows. I opened the site in Safari and voila---they were there. I guess it's a "rendering engine" problem. Oh well, thanks for your time.
