Networking
> 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: Networking
> 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.
