Hi Stuart, I still do get a cached copy if I use: <meta HTTP-EQUIV="Cache-Control" CONTENT="no-store"/>
In any case - I've now started to use Apache mod-header to write the Pragma: no-cache explicitly in the HTTP header instead of the HTML META section and now the cached version is NOT presented in Netscape 6.2 when I attempt to go back to that page in the history list. That's giving me most of the behavior I want- i.e. to forget user/passwd in the basic authorization scheme. Still I need to be careful not to write confidential stuff to the document title - as that does show up in the history. \Gavin Stuart Ballard wrote: > > Gavin Brelstaff wrote: > > > > Jonas > > Thanks for the suggestion but the > > > > <meta http-equiv="Cache-Control" content="no-cache"/> > > > > doesn't make any difference - perhaps it's a bug. > > Try "no-store" instead of "no-cache".
