good as a browser's commitment to enforce/interpret them.
IE's loose tolerance of improper code has created an entire breed of
crappy coders, and billions of pages of crappy code. ("Documented"
crappy code is OK ;) )
Ultimately, ideals get tossed out of the way of deliverables.

That's like telling a browser to ignore the Eolas ruling against
Microsoft
(which they will appeal). Not all browsers treat all things the
same. I
nearly fixed a "bug" in an application today until I realised
that - as an
"intranet" application - the only browser that would ever get a
look in
would be IE. Crappy coding yes but it worked for IE so I left it
alone (but
documented the issue of course).

Cache-Control: no-cache
Pragma: no-cache
Expires: Mon, 06 Jan 1990 00:00:01
That's the point of HTTP-EQUIV... It's meant to tell the browser
to
treat the content as equivalent to the server sending a header.
However, browsers have the responsibility of honoring that, so
it's
probably better to shove this into the server response via
CFHEADER. It
helps with some popular webcache proxies. Your call...

In addition to meta tags, you should set the http headers to not
cache
it (by using cfheader). You have to look up what those headers
are... :)

| Did you add expires and cache-control into it also?
|
|
| <META HTTP-EQUIV="Expires" content="Mon, 06 Jan 1990 00:00:01
| GMT"> <META HTTP-EQUIV="Cache-Control" content="no-cache">
|
|
| in addition to pragma.
