Refreshing cached CSS file

HTML & CSS
1

Hello everyone,
I have noticed that if I do an update to CSS stylesheet, the user has to basically refresh the page to see the changes. Caching is great because it makes surfing the site much faster, but the user doesn’t know to refresh the page to get the latest CSS to load. This can cause issues to remain in their experience even when the issues are fixed in the stylesheet.

Is there a solution to that problem that anyone uses?

I believe there is something you can add to your site’s .htaccess file to tell the server or browser to re-download the stylesheet. But I honestly don’t know what it was, I read about it in a blog article before.
