Thanks for clearing it up. I read some of the archived messages about preventing caching of webpages. Is it better to do this via CFheaders, metatags, or both? "Aaron Johnson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> on 12/18/2000 12:17:22 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: Michael She/TOR/PBC Subject: RE: CFHeader -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Michael, I'm assuming that you are talking about the <cfheader> tag and not the <cfhtmlhead> tag... totally different monsters. <cfheader> does not generate meta tags, but rather enables you to write custom response headers to the client: If you have a network packet sniffer of some sort you can check this out... I created a test script and then view the HTTP response from the server using Microsofts Network Monitor, which comes with MS 2000 Server & NT 4.0. My code was as follows: <cfheader name="test" value="1"> <html> <head> <title> test of cfheader </title> </head> <body> This is the body of my page. </body> </html> When I view the response from the server using NM, I see this: ************************************************** Content-type: text/html Page-Completion-Status: Normal test: 1 Page-Completion-Status: Normal <html> <head> <title> test of cfheader </title> </head> <body> This is the body of my page. </body> </html> ************************************************* The <cfhtmlhead> does allow you to write text into the <head> portion of your HTML document, which would provide your meta tag functionality.
