---------------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
> Wrong handling of HTTP Headers
> ------------------------------
>
> Key: COCOON-430
> URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COCOON-430
> Project: Cocoon
> Type: Bug
> Components: * Cocoon Core
> Versions: 2.0.5-dev (Current CVS)
> Environment: Operating System: All
> Platform: All
> Reporter: Carsten Ziegeler
> Assignee: Cocoon Developers Team
> Priority: Critical
>
> HTTP Headers are not handled correctly for Readers:
> When a binary content is queried the second time by the same client, the
> client
> usually sents the "If-Modified-Since" header. The HttpEnvironment compares
> this
> information with the last modification date of the source used for the reader.
> If this date comparisson is successful, Cocoon immediately returns to the
> client and no new generation takes place - because the browser has the
> content
> cached.
> This seems correct, but is actually dead wrong! This only works if the reader
> always reads the same src, but if the reader for example randomly chooses an
> image, the src does change but perhaps not the last modification date (if all
> srcs have the same last modification date for example - which is usual for
> deployed web applications).
> So the client always displays the image of the first request.
