So I’m developing basic HTML newsletters & other stuff for my clients. I’ve been posting examples for their review on my website. When they first look at the work everything is fine but when I make a change the client usually has to hit refresh, sometimes multiple times, before they see the new content.
I realize this is due to browser & server cashing. I’ve been researching this some & so far I’ve not come across an easy way to prevent this cashing issue. Note I’m not an expert in these matters. HTML & a little CSS using Dreamweaver n such.
From what I’ve read the most common solution seems to involve editing the “cashe header” that’s generated by my web host’s server. “eTags”, “expiration times”, “no-cashe”, stuff like that. My web host is Yahoo Small Business & from what I can tell, they don’t provide a way to do this, at least not Via their website control panel.
Others have suggested formatting my client review site using ASP, which I’m not familiar with but understand may solve my problem. Any advise would be appreciated. Thanks,
Nodd
