Hello all,
I'm developing some intranet pages that will be viewed with both Netscape
(on pc's) and OmniWeb on NextStep. For the most part I have everything
working correctly, but I have found some situations where OmniWeb, upon
accessing a url for a cgi script, displays a page of outdated data. This does
not occur when I access the page via Netscape. I have also found that
selected reload on the document does not help. The page seems to hang around
for quite a while before I am able to get new data displayed on it.
It occured to me that it could be the web server which is caching the page,
rather than Omniweb; but if this is the case there most be some way for omni
web to request a new version of the document in the way Netscape does.
Anyway, I figure this should be a common problem with cgi, so I was wondering
if anyone else had has this problem, and/or found a way around it.
Thanks,
Rick Meade
