Chrome.process_request() uses Request.send_file() to send the .css files back to the client. send_file() sends a Last-Modified header, and also processes an incoming If-Modified-Since header to send a 304 reply if the file hasn't changed. However, this has no effect on client-side caching, and the client uses the cached copy without validating with the server. AFAIK, there's no mechanism for the server to notify the client that it should purge its cache. -- Remy
