Ads disapproved because of error 304 "Not Modified" - what's the probl

[tsabar]

After contacting Google about my disapproved ads, I was told the ads are returning a HTTP Header status code error of 304. I am using WordPress for my site, as far as I know that's the only thing I've changed recently. The links are in Hebrew, but some of them are approved, so I'm guessing the language in the URL is not the problem. I'd appreciate any ideas as to what I'm supposed to change so my ads will get approved...?

Here's a sample link to one of the rejected ads:
[cbtisrael.co.il...]
(for some reason, this link works fine when i use it directly, but it goes to a different page when i click on it here...)

Thanx!

304 isn't an error. It means that the page (or ad, or whatever) has not changed since the last time they crawled it. Is it you or Google that's calling it an error? Are they trying to say that something was supposed to change and they're suspicious because it hasn't?

Getting a clear answer out of them is like trying to catch a soap bubble. All I understood was that the ads are disapproved because of a 304 error code which I need to correct...

Use the Live HTTP Headers extension for Firefox to check the HTTP Headers for a variety of pages on your site.

i got a 304 error, i just don't know what to do about it...?

[g1smd]

Add an EXPIRES header to the HTTP Headers with the value set to the current date and time. This will ensure the server always sends a new page, and never sends "304 Not Modified".

It's a "if-modified-since" problem. There was discussion of this a year or two back, but I don't recall the finer details.
