Thread: no cache

hi

i received an rather helpfull e-mail detail how to prevent your browser storing your web pages in its cache

it said insert the following text, between the header

<META HTTP-EQUIV="Pragma" CONTENT="no-cache">

i have done this and yet when i view page source i cant see it, should i have saved my web page as .php instead of .html?

It can be any extension that is read as a hyper text document. (Which includes html). Try hitting f5 a couple times. Even though you just added the code for the browser for not cache, it may have still been cached from before you updated it.

Also try doing a search in the source (hit ctrl + f) and type in something like <META in the search

hi

thank-you for that tip, have refreshed my page and it appears now, i have also added;

<meta http-equiv="cache-control" content="no-store">

as well as

<META HTTP-EQUIV="Pragma" CONTENT="no-cache">


will this make a difference or is it just a waste of code?

Download this program and install and then run. It will clean your cached files.

Then do a maintenance run about every week.

I, too, am using this text "Between Head Tag" on my landing/index page. Should I use it on ALL pages in my website?

Thanks in advance,

Hi, yes! it has to go on all pages. Would only recommend using it on pages that are being regally updated, like news & results pages, & these should be in preference fast loading pages that are mainly text. Not really recommended for image gallery's or similar areas of a site. If an image area of the site is a bit slow loading, it will be slow every time for a visitor as it wont be cached.

I have added the following code to "Between Head Tag"
<META HTTP-EQUIV="pragma" CONTENT="no-cache">
and I am still seeing my old version of a web page.

What's going on?
