I have also heard that adding a variable to the end of the url in the address bar seems to make the browser think it is new content. For example, adding a "?var=1" and the end of your url will make browser think they are seeing new content and will not pull from the cache.
Yep, the typical method is to include a time-stamp in the url, but then
it will _always_ pull the new content. I want to figure out how to only
pull new content when it has changed.
I just ran a test with several different browsers. Chrome 3.0.195.38
under Windows loaded a stale cached version when there was a newer
version available.

I'm using AS2 and targeting Flash Player 8.
When a movie loads in another swf (or an image for that matter), does it
check the server to see if there's a newer version? I will often
include a time-stamp as a query-string parameter to prevent loading a
cached version, but what if I want do use the cached version except in
instances where there is a newer version?
Maybe this depends on the browser?
