Hello List

I use http://tile.openstreetmap.org/${z}/${x}/${y}.png to display the map in my web application I use a filter mechanism in the servlet, where an expiry header and maximum age headers are added to the image requests, so that they will be cached for a while on the client browser. These are just for common images that the application use like tooltip.png and button.png and such...These are called from the cache just fine

Now to do the same for osm tiles I added a proxy through which the tiles are requested and then expiry headers are added to these tiles, Say http://myapplciation.com/proxy?url=http://tile.openstreetmap.org/${z}/${x}/${y}.png. This is the layer address in OpenLayers.Layer.OSM

An expiry header is added correctly to osm tiles. The problem is that the imagename in the request is different than in the response, so if I'm requesting |http://tile.openstreetmap.org/16/34687/21558.png I get an image called 2736BB16d01.png in my cache. So that by the next call this image won't be fetched from the cache and instead called again from the server and so on.

Is there a way to force the browser to load the images from its cache if available?

Thnx in advance
