Samuel,
 
Have you checked whether the URL is actually different? Are you saying
it serves out the same tiles, despite the different timestamp? Did you
check whether any tiles actually get re-written?
Have you tried playing with the "force" parameter of tile.php? If this
creates a new tile, it means the problem is it decides it doesn't need
to be re-created. If "force" doesn't work, it means it isn't able to
re-create the tiles. 
Is there a timestamp directory present?
 
regards,
 
Jacob

	Thanks for the repsonse.
	
	Yes I have included the redraw_interval and have tried the
various combinations even setting tile_source to nocache setting the
redraw_interval to be both greater then and less then the
refresh_inteval even though it looks as if it should be less then what
you set for the refresh_interval. In the end In the end I always end up
needing to delete the tiles directory populated by mapserver in order to
get them regenerated again.

		Have you looked at the redraw_interval, described in
init.php? That appends a timestamp to the URL of the tile, to force
redrawing of the tiles. refresh-interval only does a re-request,
returning a cached tile.

			Sorry but I haven't received any answers for the
questions I have posted here but this one is a bit important.
			
			After poking around and guessing at based on
what I noticed in the KaMap code I have place a refresh_interval value
in a metadata section within a layer in my map file. Now, I can see a
periodic update on the map but the problem is when I have modifed a dbf
file under mapserver those changes are not reflected. So the question
is, is there something I need to do special to get MapServer or KaMap or
whatever to detect an update done to a map so that it is served
properly?? These changes to the map files are being done programatically
and not by hand.
			
			Thanks, S.D.
