add a flag to the url function and then have TurboGears eat the
incoming "tg_random" variable so that you don't need to add another
parameter to your methods.
FYI, I've opened ticket 196 to implement this solution. It's a small
enough task that I've targeted it for 0.9.
Why not just set the cache headers correctly instead?
I tried this repeatedly, and never was able to get it working with
IE. The only solution I have found that works is sending a
timestamp in the URL (which is similar to the proposed hash solution).
Have you had a different experience with XMLHttpRequest and caching
in IE? If so, exactly what headers did you have to send? This
would be a much more elegant solution if it actually works :)
Setting Expires should work, but I don't have a Windows box in front
of me to confirm that I'm remembering it correctly.
