[flexcoders] Caching of HTTPService Requests
Hi, It appears that my HTTPService requests are being cached (I do not see the request being made to the application). How can I disable the caching of these requests ? Thanks. Yahoo!

How can I disable the caching of these requests ? I think the web browser caches the results by default, just as it would cache a normal webpage. The web server should specify a no-cache or a Expires attribute in the response headers to prevent the web browser from caching the request. Are you going through the Flex proxy? Is useProxy set on the HTTPService? There's people from the Flex server development team who can give you a better answer. Manish Yahoo!

RE: [flexcoders] Caching of HTTPService Requests
Yes, but remember you have no REAL control over how a client caches a page. Several major browser munge the way they handle caching and/or offline browsing. There could be multiple caches between the end user and the server, and one or more of these may totally ignore cache meta tags. Not something to rely on. -Original Message- From: Manish Jethani [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 24 March 2005 14:04 To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Caching of HTTPService Requests On Thu, 24 Mar 2005 13:42:12 -, viraf_bankwalla [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: It appears that my HTTPService requests are being cached (I do not see the request being made to the application).

If you absolutely, totally, seriously :) want to refresh the data, just append some random string to the URL. The 'url' property of HTTPService can be modified at runtime. Manish Yahoo!

RE: [flexcoders] Caching of HTTPService Requests
Beyond this though, are you using a JSP or servlet to return the data? I have found these cache settings to work in all browsers Ive tried: response.setHeader(Cache-Control, no-cache); response.setDateHeader(Expires, 94608000L); //Approx Jan 1, 2000 response.setHeader(Pragma, no-cache); Matt From: Manish Jethani [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 24, 2005 6:36 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Caching of HTTPService Requests On Thu, 24 Mar 2005 14:12:07 -, Shell Bryson [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Yes, but remember you have no REAL control over how a client caches a page.
