hi,

have a framed site with a couple of pages which are written away by an asp script.
then they are viewed via the frameset .
the generateed pages have the pragma no-cache meta tag in , yet, when called form the frameset, the browser.. IE and firefox, altho both set to check for a new version of the page, are not doing so.
is this because of the frameset .?
or could the doctype have something to do with this.?
cant say im too keen to put no cache on all the pages, as for most of the site, nothign much changes.

any ideas much appreciated

tia

if you can get asp to send out server headers (not meta tags) 'Cache-control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate' for those framed pages you don't want cached, this might do it for you.

sorry maybe i didnt make it clear enough, the pages are generated by asp, but viewed as plain html..
most of the site is static.

If they're asp generated on-the-fly, asp should be able to output these headers for you. If not, put the pages that you want non-cached in a different directory, and use an htaccess file to control the cache headers, you could probably ask in the asp forum.
