1) short cache periods - you've touched on that 2) version the filenames. abc-1.gif and then abc-2.gif. plays hell with source control. 3) write a custom image_tag() helper that applies a version number to the resource. It could simply be a global revision/release number or it could be the mtime for the specific resource. For example: abc.gif?12345678 -- Jacob Coby --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "symfony users" group.
