RE: problem with caching of jpegs by Internet Explorer

2003-11-05 Thread Alten, Jelle Paul (sds-sp)

What I do to force a refresh in ms-ie: change the src-uri of the image every
time the html is served: add a timestamp-generated nr to the uri like this:
img src=photo.jpg?nr=34292385765/

next time the html is requested make sure the nr-value is different:
img src=photo.jpg?nr=34292385798/

You can do this server side, or with javascript client side.
Don't do this in a production situation unless you really have to...

Greetings,

Jelle

You could test for access by IE using the browser selector, and serve
them the file with an explicit expiry in the pipeline:

map:parameter name=expires value=access plus 5 minutes/

 Hi,
 
 I have been creating a web site with Cocoon 2.1.2 that 
 dynamically generates
 jpeg/png images.
 
 The problem is that when the site is viewed by Internet 
 Explorer, old cached
 images are view and the jpegs/png images do not refresh despite being
 modified from the last access to the site. This can be fixed 
 on the client
 side by selecting on the browser 'Internet Options - 
 Settings - Check for
 newer version of stored pages' and changing the setting to 
 'Every visit to
 the page' instead of 'Automatically' but this is not a good 
 solution if
 others wish to view the page.
 
 Is there anything I can do in Cocoon to make sure that changes to the
 jpegs/pngs are shown whenever the site is accessed?
 
 Thanks in advance,
 Jim
