Hi Jason "max-age value in the Cache-Control header that is returned by the server hosting the application" >> Thanks for this info. Will check it out.
I never use bpc=1 in orkut.com. I just wait to see the changes. This doesnt take much time most of the time. I usually update in the nights. The next morning when I browse through my friends app canvas, I see the occurence of the older version. Any number of refresh won't help. Later, when I check by noon or night, it would seem to be fine! In terms of region, I am currently in Tokyo but almost all my friends are in India. However, does this mean "profiles of users orginating from India " are not refreshed but "profile of users orginating from Japan" are? App Url: http://www.orkut.com/AppInfo.aspx?appId=858354044197 (Flaunt It!) I am not sure if this could be related to the other errors (viewer.isOwner is not a function & a has no properities) that I emailed to your personal id + opensocial feedback id. I know you would work on umpteem number of apps, so you not recall. Cheers! Rajiv On Thu, Jun 19, 2008 at 10:06 AM, Jason <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I apologize for all of the confusion.
