Re: [Flashcoders] NoCache XML
For those who need a little more tighter control of no-cache on their webserver. You can evidently control your no-cache via an .htacess in the required directory. http://www.askapache.com/htaccess/apache-speed-cache-control.html It also looks like you can set the no-cache per file type, i.e - .swf I got this from someone on my PHP list. Thought it was interesting, so I am passing it on. HTHs someone Karl On Apr 5, 2010, at 8:29 PM, Nathan Mynarcik wrote: The nocache in the SWFObject is so the swf isn't cached.

Re: [Flashcoders] NoCache XML
Hi Nathan, Are you adding the no-cache to the html page or to the swfobject that loads? I noticed on your site that you have the no-cache in the swfobject. Maybe if the no-cache was associated with the html file that the swfobject was embedded/placed in, it would work? I believe, but no proof atm, that the code I supplied will make sure nothing in the html will cache. Not the html page nor its contents. But I can not validate that atm.

RE: [Flashcoders] NoCache XML
Figured out this issue. The NoCache method worked fine. I was trying to use the information before it was set in it's variables. Thanks Steven and others for their replies!

RE: [Flashcoders] NoCache XML
The XML file is only called once for the user's experience. On the initial visit from the user, the XML for the UI of the site is called and then the XML for the content is called (RSS feed). If I can't figure this out, I might just set a cookie via JavaScript and have it clear the contents in -1 days so nothing gets cached from the site.
