[Webdev] Re: Webdev digest, Vol 1 #369 - 2 msgs

[adrian murphy]

not an ideal solution by any means,but i had a similar
problem creating images on the fly with php.the browser
was always showing the cached version.
so i used time() to add a variable to the querystring ,which
would always be unique,
to trick the browser into going back to the server to reparse the page.i.e.
$now = time();
then  nextpage.php?i=$now
not ideal but it worked - i had no luck with adding any
header info.
regards,
adrian
