emdiamond:For some reason the changes would not take affect when I made them in the ACP template editor.
If that's the case then you were still seeing a cached version of the page. Probably your browser cache, or maybe your isp or hosting. Might be worth checking your error logs to see if you have introduced any template errors (but I'd expect there to be an error message or white page as well).
If your browser is caching pages you need to sort that out in your browser controls, otherwise you will continue to have the same problems every time you make any changes to your site.
