I know that this file defines global constants for labels and text used from the HTML and panels. However, when I went to change some of the text within the resx file, the change did not appear on the website after copying up the new .resx file. I even recompiled and copied up the web.dll and articlelive.dll. I tried this several times, making sure that I saved the right file and used the right Strings.resx file. Still, my website, never showed my changes.

Yet, if I change the "Key" that is used in the Panel to something that is NOT located in the .resx file, then that "Key" becomes the text that is displayed.

So what am I missing, why does updating the Strings.resx file not update my website?

Thanks,
Mike

I compiled another class within the web project and redeployed and now I see the resx text changes, though what I compilied I don't think had anything to do with the resx file. So I can only assume that there is some caching going on with that file?
