Problem in new VSD.

For some reason, one of the paypal 'buy now' buttons on my site is not uploading correctly. I have double and triple checked the html. It is correct, but something is going out and grabbing a totally DIFFERENT button!

The next thing I did was delete the button (html) completly and reupload the website to the server. When I run the website, the incorrect button is still there! VSD is not getting rid of the bad boy file! The button is NOT there in preview but reappears on the website in the browser.

I'm stumped! Of course I emptied my cache, refreshed the page, etc. etc.

HELP!

Here is the html that is in the button in VSD, followed by the html that is appearing on the published site! WTF!!!

Is re-sync an option? It could ask you to delete unused files and it's wise to answer "Yes".

And have you tried shift+reload in your browser to make sure you're looking at the most current version and not the last one stored in the cache?

Hi Guys,
*******WITH VSD OPENED AND MINIMIZED*********

I use to have that problem sometimes in the last version, so I I found was the "bad boy" image was in the files folder of my website, under an (IMG_0.jpg your number may be different) and ended up deleting that image. Then I would delete the image of the button or whatever. Then went to remove files under settings and also removed any trace there and saved VSD project. then readded the image back in and it worked. I don't know if it's the same with the new version cause it hasn't happened to me yet so I really can't say, but in preview if you were missing something you'd get an error that was looking to find somethng so I would try resyncing - at least if something was missing a window would pop up and if you are just cancel out to stop the do you want to search thingy. lol

ok I'm done jabbering!

I have deleted the bad boy file and used re-sync several times but with the lastest version of vsd it doesn't ask me anymore if I want to get rid of deleted files. What happened to this option?

I'll try the shift+reload but I have actually totally exited the site, cleared my cache and then reloaded the site without any luck.

Weirdest part is the "preview" is just fine after deleting the offending 'button'. but when I upload to the server, the 'bad boy' is still there! I will try going to my server and looking for a wayward file, deleting, etc.

Thanks for the input!

is it "bad boy" located in the remove files section under settings?
something is referencing it

Bruzer, in VSD 6 ( mine anyway) the 'remove files' under settings is greyed out. doesn't give me that option although I have deleted the offending button. DOH! God knows what VSD names it when it uploads to the server!

DANG! This is really causing my business some big problems. People are clicking on the buy now button to purchase the item in question but get a totally different product in their shopping cart at paypal.

Grrrrr. Can we still get the previous version of VSD!!??

I took the code you provided here and I have it at http://hotsync.net/paypal/ and everything looks ok. I used the HTML Tool to enter in that code. This will not appear as an image in VSD as it is dynamically being served by PayPal. I modified this code a few times with different buttons I made in PayPal and it always updated. You could try deleting db.vsd_1.php on your server which will force VSD to re-upload all your files again.

Here is the VSD 6.0 page in the program

Note that there is no 'buy now' button opposite the word Flexshaft.

But when I upload to the server, here is what I get...go to

http://minicatracingusa.com/VelocityParts.html

Note there is now a Buy Now button opposite the word Flexshaft. Moreover, it contains the html for the wrong item!

If I view source on that page, the following should NOT be on that page at all! It is the bad boy...
