Gee Dani, why don't you just rename your css files?

I needed you to clear your cache for the JavaScript file that powers the menu, and the file is appropriately titled 'menu'. What would you have me rename it to?
Dunno, menu1.js, perhaps. You could also use
menu.js?123 in your template, and every time you change the number, it would force the browser to redownload the file. Come join the official DaniWeb IRC community chat

This was said rather tongue-in-cheek. What else to name a menu but a menu!
I realize that, but I'm serious. You as a webmaster probably know that it's a common technique to append a number to files that the browser caches but need to be updated. An alternate way is to append '?xxx', which will still bring up the same file, but the browser thinks it's different, and will redownload it.
Let's just say I hate clearing my cache(s).
