Hello!
Thanks again for the pointers. I have caching enabled, and the purpose of
this is to set different expire times based on the request (if it's
cacheable). So I have 3 locations: 1 for frontpage, 1 for dynamic pages and
another for static content. I can't use your example though because it will
ignore those headers even for requests which shouldn't be cached, hence the
$skip_cache variable check. Is there a way to tie checking a variable value
to the ignore headers method?
