Anyhow, the trick is to add a timestamp to the href that updates with the image so that it tricks the caching mechanism into reloading the same named file when the timestamp has changed. Does cheetah support that sort of thing?
Yes, Cheetah supports it. I use this trick in my Belchertown skin <http://belchertownweather.com/go/btowngithub> to prevent caching. Here's how you can use it too. This is *NOT TESTED* on Seasons, so be sure to have a backup. Find the images you want to stop caching for. For example inside the index.html.tmpl. Add this to the end of the image src: ?v=#echo int( time.time() ) # For example in a full line: <img src="daybarometer.png?v=#echo int( time.time() ) #" alt= "$obs.label.barometer"/> That'll change the img src to have a timestamp at the end, similar to your a href you have mentioned. The timestamp will not be when you refresh the page, but rather the time when weewx generated the index.html page. So it should update every archive interval with a new timestamp appended.
