Comment #8 on issue 1906 by yoav.weiss.fr: Shift-Reload or Ctrl-Reload support http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1906
According to http://www.google.com/support/chrome/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=95743 there should be a significant difference between F5 and CTRL+F5. CTRL+F5 should ignore cached content. From a previous comment by jshin I understand that both trigger 'force-reload'. I have seen that both send a conditional request header (If-Modified-Since/If-None- Match) along with "Cache-Control: max-age=0". That means that an intermediate HTTP/1.0 cache (Such as Squid) may return 304 responses to these requests, which will result in the browser getting cached content. Other browsers (IE,FF,Safari) send CTRL+F5 requests with no conditional header field, which enables the browser to get non-cached content from the origin server. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
