<bad morning> Thanks for the positive feedback. Glad I could help. You've obviously never had to support end-users' browsers. Ideally every server would send the correct headers and we would all live in the happy town of CacheLand. The reality is: different browsers interpret different headers differently and the headers themselves are almost as much of a crapshoot as trying to write cross-browser JavaScript. Many sites don't even send the right headers or omit them outright. Let's not forget overzealous caching proxies too. </bad morning>
Jon - Are you specifically setting any caching/expires headers in your output?

If your page needs to reload every visit, then the *server* should tell the browser that it is not to be cached (or that it expired a year ago). You're basically slowing down everything by not caching anything. Old versions of Opera used to ignore the expire/no cache by default, so had to be configured to honor them so things worked as expected. _______________________________________________ templates mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.template-toolkit.org/mailman/listinfo/templates _______________________________________________ templates mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.template-toolkit.org/mailman/listinfo/templates
