I like this method too, since it puts the work on PHP instead of
_javascript_, but unfortunately, in this case, I do not control the image
generating script.

Subject: Re: [jQuery] Refresh an image with dynamic src URL?
If you want to defeat the cache you could try appending the current time
as a query string:
img.src = "" + "?" + (new Date()).getTime();
-blair
Another solution would be to, in your image generating script, send HTTP headers that tell the browser not to cache the file.
Here's the PHP code that would it:
header('Pragma: public');
header('Expires: Thu, 19 Nov 1981 08:52:00 GMT');
header('Cache-Control: must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0');
header('Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate');
