Nameserver oddity

Hi,

I transferred one of my domains to a new host yesterday and also left all the old files on the old server too. I had always thought that this would make a seamless nameserver transfer as when it's propagating the changes the site would show on one server or another.

My problem is is that I cannot access my own site. Other people are able to - and I was able to for a while yesterday but now I can't again. I am still getting hits to the site - I can see through the tracking but I have no idea if they are viewing the old server or the new.

Why is this happening? Why am I not seeing the sites on the old server if they have not propagated onto my ISP yet? It seems really odd to me - and this being my main business site I am worried about it not propagating correctly (a nameserver lookup tells me that the namservers are pointing correctly at my new host).

Any advice please?

Thanks,

Jez.
