solved.
those who might be interested in the solution, just add header in the
response object saying explicitly not to cache.
only for GET requests, response must have something like this:
<%
response.setHeader("CACHE-CONTROL", "NO-CACHE");
%>
hmm.. it might be a good suggestion for prototype to improve it a bit.
