Re: [flexcoders] Custom Window Component - Is this possible?

Via code you can append a random number to the URL. Since it's generally unique each time, it almost never reads from the cache. I reckon if you build your URL dynamically for HTTPService, you can ensure it'll never be cached. var url : String = http://www.server.com/file.php;; url += ? +
