Firefox caching iframe data
Ok this is a repost cuz of stinkin’ DreamHost.
If you have an auto-generated iframe from a javascript, and this iframe has dynamic data, FireFox (but not IE) wll cache your data. Even if you have
<META HTTP-EQUIV=“Cache-Control” CONTENT=“no-cache”>
<META HTTP-EQUIV=“Pragma” CONTENT=“no-cache”>
After days of pulling out my hair (or what little I have left), i found out the only way around this is by calling this in your JavaScript:
iframe.src = iframe.src;
This basically forces the browsers to reload. Not the most efficient solution but it works. Also, I haven’t tested to see if I could remove this with FireFox 3 coming out but no matter. The rest of the world is gonna take 1-2 years to download FF3 anyway.
PS: Hairloss is not due to masturbation. Thank god for that.
hello, I have the same problem,
do you have full code about this ?
thanks.
