(I am a Mac man myself BTW, and for personal use I apply Safari and Firefox). But that is irrelevant. This is a web app we are developing, and our _users_ can use any browser, and I cannot direct them to jump through such hoops. Furthermore, the behavior is cross-browser (hey! it's compatible! ;-) ).
Either Tomcat or the IIS is doing this, and that's where the problem needs to be solved. Since I never noticed this with Apache httpd, I presume it's IIS (but never having noticed it isn't exactly scientific proof …).

Jan,<x-tad-smaller>Met vriendelijke groeten,
which browser do you use?
I guess IE. It has an "automatic" option for the handling of HTTP
requests which means that IE decides when it is convenient to ask for
a file. This produces very erratic behavior.
I can't persuade my IE the show the english menus but it should be
Extras->Internet Options->General->Temporary Files->Options???.
Anyhow, there the rightmost button.
Pops up the dialog to change the caching behavior.
I don't agree. That eats bandwidth.
I absolutely agree, the concept to deliver style information together
with each content is not the best idea.
