When you do a Ctl->F5 Refresh in IE6, it sends a max-age=259200 header (it's 3 days by the way).
Why doesn't it send max-age=0 like Firefox; surely that's the correct behaviour, and I'm curious to know why IE6 wouldn't do that.

I've tried to research this issue and can't find the rationale - I agree with you, it just seems wrong. However wrong it might seem, there's usually some logic behind the decisions Microsoft makes, even if it seems strained. This one eludes me.

My thinking exactly tedster. I've put it on another forum as well so I'll post back here if I get the answer there.
