refresh page

[Ken]

If the image content for image1.jpg changes, but the file name image1.jpg
does not,
IE6 does not show the new content unless F5 is pressed.

If I reload the page using http://domain.com/view_pictures.php the image
does not change.

If I use a header("LOCATIO N: http://domain.com/view_pictures.p hp"), the
image does not change.

I have tried several ideas to force the reloading of the image file with no
little success.

I cannot change the image file name.

Even if I add another a second image, the first image does not change.

IE must use the file name to determine if it should reload the file. But F5
works.

Is there a means in either php or JavaScript to call (force) a F5-keyboard
command? or an absolute refresh not reload.

Quick and dirty:

<img src="image1.jpg ?<?PHP echo time(); ?>" />
