OK, this has been doing my head in and despite trawling the code for some sites that do it (eg. RackSpace) I cannot figure out how to get a page to refresh/reload without having the browser reload all the images too.

In other words, how do I reload a page and force the browser to use the images in its cache?

The reason I want to do it is so that I can gently rotate the front images on my own site (Memset dedicated hosting as they do already if you refresh the page but without all the other images reloading and making it look untidy to the user. (yes I could do it with DHTML but that's a mild PITA).

Any tips appreciated - this surely should be simple!

Kate.
