I attempted to submit a ticket to Servelink about this issue but there seems to be a problem with their ticket submission. When you click Submit Ticket, the site takes you to an error page. I am unable to find any other way to contact them, besides SMS messaging. I tried that in the past but didn't get a response. (I'm not sure if I'm doing that right)

Anywho...

I'm a little confused by my cart.asp page reverting back to its previous version without making any edits, or re-uploading the page.

I edited some css in ectstyle1.css in December of last year, to change the appearance of my cart.asp page. I moved the <link href="css/ectstyle1.css" rel="stylesheet"> line up above the other style pages, as per an ECT forum suggestion. The changes worked great. The cart pulled from the ectstyle1.css page and all was good. However, from time to time the cart page reverts back to the previous version (prior to the css edits). I simply re-upload the cart page and that fixes the issue.

The same thing happened again this morning. I wasn't receiving any orders so I checked the site to make sure all was good. The cart page had reverted back to the previous version again and it was all discombobulated. I just re-uploaded the cart page and that fixed it.

I am just confused as to how the cart page simply reverts back by itself. I haven't made any uploads or edits, but the page just seems to change on its own. Its extremely weird and frankly it is very frustrating.

Any ideas on how this keeps happening?

Hi!

I could be wrong here but the last CSS link should override similar styles in any style sheets above it.

So the order would be:

link href="css/ectstyle.css" rel="stylesheet"
link href="css/ectstyle1.css" rel="stylesheet"

Julie,

I had the line link href="css/ectstyle1.css" rel="stylesheet" at the bottom of the pile but it wasn't pulling the css code from it. When I moved it to the top it started to pull.

Maybe it pulls in different orders each time..?

It'll be your browser. We just serve the code in the way you have written it, we don't ever serve previous versions, just the latest that we have The browser will then grab the stylesheets in the order they are listed in your code. If you don't see the results you expect it's pretty much always caching in your browser that is the culprit. Clear the browser cache, disable it or try incrementing a version number as I mentioned here: https://www.ecommercetemplates.com/support/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=111739

Thanks Peter,

I'll try setting a version number as you suggested. Each time it happens, the first thing I do is attempt to diagnose how the issue occurred. I've tried clearing my cache ("sine the beginning of time"), and I've tried using different browsers. The only thing that fixes the issue is uploading my cart.asp page again. Its really weird.

Thanks for the help!
