Hi

If you work on UNIX make one directory with the common files and
in each of apps directories make symbolic links to the common dir.
If you modify a file in a common dir you see the changes in all apps
without committing and updating CVS. And you do not need extra
disk space.

RE: Clear Cache In IE5

[Marcin Jaskula]

Hi

Try to add headers:

response.setHeader("Cache-Control", "no-cache, must-revalidate,
max_age=0");
response.setDateHeader("Expires", 0);
response.setHeader("Pragma", "no-cache");

just at the begin of a script. Should work on almost all browsers.

Hi

I used to have similar problem.
I'm using Tomcat 4.0 with PostgreSQL, DB encoding LATIN-2.
I couldn't get proper characters from the page source, an input form (post
method) and from the DB.
I managed it by:
1. The page with the input form MUST have encoding=iso-8859-2

2. The DB encoding LATIN-2
3. In the source of the jsp page:
<%@ page
contentType="text/html; charset=iso-8859-2"

%>
request.setCharacterEncoding("iso-8859-2"); // just after <%@page !! before
you
 // read any
argument from request

and in the http headers:

// ^ it looks unnecessary but otherwise it doesn't work ???

All the best
Marcin
