Some browsers (ie 5.0 on Win32 comes to mind) inappropriately cache some
pages. Generally you need to put a <pragma> tag for IE and a <meta> tag
for some Netscape browsers to force it not to cache these pages.
If memory serves we actually put these tags in the app's Application.cfm
file once to force all pages to shove the needed pragma and meta tags onto
every page. Definately not an optimal solution, because some pages should
be cached (then again, if they really were static, they should have been
.html and not .cfm ... but some developers make bad choices on projects).
Ended up being easier to just toss the do-not-cache tags onto every page
than get developers to think a bit about whether or not their content
really was static.
