Caching

[PetrolTed]

Just noticed that whilst I'm dialing in using Freeserve that the home page is being cached and can misleadingly look out of date.

Can any webbies help me stop this?

I'm currently using:

meta http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache"
meta http-equiv="EXPIRES" content="0"

Cheers,
Ted

I use these four lines in the top of an ASP to stop the page being cached:

' prevent the page from being cached
Response.Buffer = True
Response.ExpiresAbsolute = Now() - 1
Response.Expires = 0
Response.CacheControl = "no-cache"

The home page isn't ASP, it's HTML.

You could try this:

META http-equiv="Expires" content="Tue, 20 Aug 1996 14:25:27 GMT"

It's generated automatically but I'd rather have an HTML page there than hit the database with more queries.
