Hi,

thanks for making the CacheDirective stuff available, now.

When setting max-age via the new mechanisms a line as follows is added:

Cache-Control:max-age="3600"

I'm absolutely no http expert. But with respect to RFC2616 14.6 "age values
are non-negative integers". Can it be confirmed than every popular browser
will interpret this value correctly and behave accordingly?

I'm writing this as I started playing with this directives to enhance
caching (eg. cache ldap user information for one hour, cache listgrid
layouts for one day etc.). But on Safari (4.0.4) it has no effect. I did not
find the time to test other browsers or provide a simple scenario. But maybe
my concerns about the string value are void, anyway.

Regards,
Guido Schmidt
