On the *server*, set the Cache-Control header to "max-age=0, must- revalidate" to disable caching of the resource. Most server-side technologies (PHP, JSP, etc.) will allow you to specify header values. The headers of the response, not the request, are what control client-side caching, which is why you need to set the values on the server instead of in the client-side HTTPService request.
Search the archives for Cache-Control and you'll find plenty of posts on the subject. I remember seeing exampples for JSP, PHP, and CF. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Guido <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Is there a way to specify the HTTPService to no-cache mode?
