How can you tell if a site you frequent
is setup to use prefetch of web pages?
...
Obviously, prefetching would not cause a Web page to appear in a user's
browser before the user requests it. The prefectched page does come
from the cache, but it went into the cache by being prefetched from the
Web before the user requested it.
Now that we've covered the obvious ;-) how can you tell if a website
is, and I quote from SeaMonkey, "designed for prefetch" ???
You have to examine the source HTML of the page. Between<head> and
</head>, it should have<link> tags with the rel="prefetch" attribute
and value.
Thanks. If one is 'googling' that would be a good time to disable the feature
because
it could load your browser cache with the rest of the site while all you sought
was
the one page with the keywords.
