Is this behavior all from one browser, or from multiple browsers? I had a similar problem, but by telling my browser to stop caching, it went away, so my thought was that for whatever reason it was cached on the browser. Which, as I'm typing this, seems like it might be fixed by the other solution (a dynamic jsp:include), because if the browser isn't loading it from somewhere else, it must not be getting a header that leads to reloading... you could also maybe try using some of the <META> tags to force non-caching behavior of the included page...
