RE: Setting "Expires" header in JSP

[PELOQUIN,JEFFREY (Non-HP-Boise,ex1)]

We inherited a number of JSP pages with this line in them

<% response.setHeader("pragma", "no-cache");
response.setHeader("Cache-control", "no-cache");
response.setHeader("Cache-control", "no-store"); %>

I have never gone and checked if this truly results in a page that is not
cached or if the options are specific to our Netscape 3.6.3 webserver

In some of our "ugly" servlet code using html (no jsp!), my predecessor
wrote this code to expire his html page within a servlet.

Does this help for formatting purposes in your jsp?

Jackie

response.setHeader("Expires", "Tues, 01 Jan 1980 00:00:00 GMT");
