Hi David !
Yes this mostly seems to work quite well. The thing is to make sure that
all assets are called using this random string-- that none sneaks
through unintentionally
Kind regards

I've read that appending a random query string ( example : new Date.getTime() )
to the URL of assets (images, sounds, XML files, etc.) loaded at runtime in the
Flash Player ensures that these assets are always loaded from the server
instead of being loaded from the cache.
I've tested this on Windows XP in IE5, IE5.5, IE6, FF1, FF1.5, FF2, Opera 8,
Opera 8.5, Opera 9, Netscape 7 and Netscape 8 and it seems to work very well.
However, I haven't been able to test this on a Mac or on Linux.
Is this method bulletproof (it works in all browsers on all operating systems)?
Is this something that you would really rely on for big projects?
Has anyone ever used this method and had big problems with it or even minor
glitches?
