Problem with cache [ing] http url from loadStrings
Aug 17th, 2006, 8:43pm  
Hello.

When I use Opera browser and write:
loadStrings("http://someurl...");
in loop of course, I found that Opera cache this url for me and my data isnt updated.

When I change in Tools/Preferences/Advance/History/Check documents: [default set from 5 hours] to Always - all is working properly. In FF all its ok.

I tried add some headers to head html page:
<meta HTTP-EQUIV="pragma" CONTENT="no-cache">
but I have a question - it is possible to add this headers to applet to ? [inside of applet or something] ? Maybe this can solve my problem ?

Best regards

the easiest way to force un-caching of an URL is adding a random number as query string...

Code:
loadStrings("http://example.org/?"+(int)random(Integer.MAX_VALUE));


hth!
