If you want to allow the reloading of the same page automatically then
you must allow WWWOFFLE to refetch the page even though it is already
new. WWWOFFLE tends to not refresh pages so that you don't get
unneeded page updates and save bandwidth as well as make browsing
quicker. If you think that WWWOFFLE is caching too many pages then
there are lots of options that you can use to stop it.
These options will make sure that pages are cached by WWWOFFLE as
little as possible and re-requested as often as possible:
request-changed = 0
request-changed-once = no
request-no-cache = yes
request-redirection = yes
request-conditional = yes
If you want to make sure that your refresh button works then all of
these options will be needed:
pragma-no-cache = yes
cache-control-no-cache = yes
cache-control-max-age-0 = yes
If you use the ModifyHTML section and have 'enable-modify-html = yes'
then you need to make sure that you disable these options:
disable-meta-refresh = no
disable-meta-refresh-self = no
These options listed above can be applied to individual websites vy
specifying a URL like this:
<*://fresh.forums.web/*> request-changed = 0
