This may work for IE. IE has the option of either caching or not caching (if
you use this meta-tag option). Personally i would not trust this to work on
IE cause i have been there.

i think this is solution for all browsers...
use meta tag in html for pragma no-cache and
also use response.setHeader("Pragma","no-cache") from server side..
this should work for IE also..

Subject: Re: Url Rewrting and Cache problems
Further to my previous email, the caching in IE is becoming beyond a joke.
The browser seems to just pick files at random from the cache when it
displays a page.
In response to a request for the root index.jsp file for my site it returned
the source of an external javascript file linked to the document it was just
displaying!!!
I know this is a problem with IE and not struts itself but has anyone found
a solution to the caching problem? And, moreover, a solution that works
across all browsers?
Many thanks,
-James
