MY version...

Recommended Posts

Is coming out quite nicely. I've been working on this like crazy, converting everything to ajax so it runs smoothly

1 issue.

In firefox, it works perfectly (naturally).

In internet explorer, however... the chat side doesn't update unless you delete your temporary internet files. So everytime you clear your files, it updates. It's dumb...

I hate IE

Any ideas on how to fix this, or get around this?

Re: MY version...

<meta http-equiv="pragma" content="no-cache" />

doesn't work anymore, used to work in ie4 but was discontinued in ie 5+

this is one way to do it. found it works well.

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>---</TITLE>
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Pragma" CONTENT="no-cache">
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Expires" CONTENT="-1">
</HEAD>
<BODY>

Text in the Browser Window

</BODY>
<HEAD>
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Pragma" CONTENT="no-cache">
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Expires" CONTENT="-1">
</HEAD>
</HTML>

 

shouldn't work but it does........

SYMPTOMS

When you use the <HTTP-EQUIV="PRAGMA" CONTENT="NO-CACHE"> metatag in the header section at the beginning of an HTML Web page, the Web page may still be cached in the Temporary Internet Files folder.

 

CAUSE

A page that Internet Explorer is browsing is not cached until half of the 64 KB buffer is filled. Usually, metatags are inserted in the header section of an HTML document, which appears at the beginning of the document. When the HTML code is parsed, it is read from top to bottom. When the <HTTP-EQUIV="PRAGMA" CONTENT="NO-CACHE"> metatag is read, Internet Explorer looks for the existence of the page in cache at that exact moment. If it is there, it is removed.

 

RESOLUTION

To properly prevent the Web page from appearing in the cache, place another header section at the end of the HTML document. For example:

<HTML>

<HEAD>

<META HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" CONTENT="5">

<TITLE> Pragma No-cache </TITLE>

</HEAD>

<BODY>

This is an example of where to place the second header section

so that the "Pragama, No-Cache" metatag will work as it is supposed to.

 

</BODY>

<HEAD>

<META HTTP-EQUIV="PRAGMA" CONTENT="NO-CACHE">

</HEAD>

</HTML>
