HTML head isn't the same as setting an HTTP head;
Try Googling setting the Pragma: no-cache http header directly.

Forms Caching in FireFox?

2006-11-25 Thread Richard Bagshaw 
Hi Peeps,

This isn't directly CGI / perl, however I am currently working on a CGI
project and I have stumbled across something that I just cannot seem to
fathom.  Basically I have written a perl script that displays some drop
down boxes on a page, each time the page loads the information is read
from the database and the drop downs are automatically set to the
correct values each time, however .. in firefox if I do a normal
refresh, the information is read from the database correctly, but the
html cached someplace?  So basically, I took the following code, just as
HTML code and once again it cached even this simple code, when I change
the selected option in the source code (html) it doesn't reflect in the
browser unless I do CTRL-F5.  Im sure this is simple, but seeing as it
works fine in IE, and Safari I wondered if anyone else had stumbled
across this before?

html
head
  META HTTP-EQUIV=CACHE-CONTROL CONTENT=NO-CACHE
  META HTTP-EQUIV=PRAGMA CONTENT=NO-CACHE
  meta http-equiv=expires content=0
  meta http-equiv=refresh content=60
  titleTest HTML/title
/head
body
  form name=myform1 action=blah.pl method=post
select name=newpriority onChange=this.form.submit()
size=1
  option value=lowlow/option
  option selected value=standardstandard/option
  option value=highhigh/option
/select
  /form
/body
/html

Thanks,

Richard
