Adam-
You need to set no cache for the html pages/images on the client's side
so put this right after the Browser client's <head> tag
<META HTTP-EQUIV="PRAGMA" CONTENT="NO-CACHE">
Using the struts-way your web.xml could look like
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>CacheFilter</filter-name>
<url-pattern>*.jsp</url-pattern>
<init-param>
<param-name>/Whatever.jsp</param-name>
<param-value>nocache</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>cacheTimeout</param-name>
<param-value>1</param-value>
</init-param>
</filter-mapping>
Documentation for setting up a cache filter can be viewed at

Subject: Linking to Stylesheets
Folks,
Our JSP's use stylesheets referenced by a standard HTML link tag. E.g. <link
rel="stylesheet" href="pages/calendar/calendar.css">
The graphic designers are complaining 'cos on-the-fly changes made in a
stylesheet does not automatically force a JSP to get re-compiled by Tomcat
5.0.28. This means they cant see their changes unless they restart TC.
Q: Is there any way to tell TC to re-compile JSP's when a stylesheet has
changed?
We tried putting the styles in another JSP then using <[EMAIL PROTECTED] ....>
to
embed them in each page.
This didn't work because some of the styles have hard-coded relative paths
in them e.g. "url(../images/b_PEC_request.jpg);"
The path was interpreted as relative to the main page rather than to the
included JSP that holds the stylesheets. So the images were not found.
Q: What is the standard approach for this?
TIA - Adam
