Feature Request: Random GET attribute in requests to avoid caching
------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: XAP-250
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XAP-250
Project: XAP
Issue Type: Wish
Components: Widgets
Reporter: Trevor Oldak
Priority: Minor
One of the biggest problems I've come across while developing XAL applications
is the tendency of the browser to ignore changes I've made and use a cached
version of a file instead. It requires me to clear my cache every time I reload
a page, which becomes tedious after a while.
One popular way to avoid caching without server-side code is the use of a
random value in a URL.
Normally when a file is requested, it asks for the same file each time, such as
"index.xal"
If we threw a random value on the end, so we have "index.xal?xal_nocache=(some
random 15 digit string)" we could avoid cache problems without the user needing
to configure the server on their side or have a piece of code inserted into
every dynamic xal file they write.
