I have found that the most reliable way to avoid browser caching when I want
to force a redraw of a WMS layer is to do something like this:
wms_layer.mergeNewParams({'timestamp':datetime});
If you append the current timestamp to the layer each time you want to do a
redraw it will have a unique address and thus bypass browser caching. If you
do this you will not need to utilize the OpenLayers redraw function.
