Hi, thanks for that! I'll have a play.. It's a shame that this won't
handle resources (e.g. images) referenced from CSS, but it's really
the directly imported JS and CSS files that I was aiming for.

Note that the original article suggested that the query string
approach doesn't (or "shouldn't") work at all:
http://particletree.com/notebook/automatically-version-your-css-and-javascript-files/#comment-24520

However, if it turns out that browser do cache URLs with query strings
then this might be one care when non-standards compliant browsers
actually help me!
