Because browsers don't always honor the headers. I'm getting 304s on static and quasi-static pages even with etag and cache-control. Also, this is a special case because he's setting an image tag to the "same" image repeatedly. The browser thinks it's still showing the same page, like how paging through results via Ajax does not let you go to previously-seen pages via the Back button. -- Mike Orr <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pylons-discuss" group.
