one of the things I've noticed with caching is that it seems like CF Server
caches the whole "request." In your example, and of course with most
fusebox apps, cfinclude is used. When CF Server "compiles" the templates
needed to run the request and send something back to the browser, it just
inserts the cfinclude'd files into their respective places.
I would guess that even an HTML file falls into the caching for that reason.
The only way I've been able to get content to change without having to
uncheck/check the caching option is to use database-driven content.
In short, CF caches the whole request. It doesn't cache query results
however, just the query code.
Hope that helps.
