Re: FN-FORUM Caching image problem...grrrrrrr

Hmmm... I know the following works with HTML, but I've never tried with
images. When you're outputting your image header, try doing this too....

header ("Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT"); // Date in the past
header ("Last-Modified: " . gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s") . " GMT"); // always
modified
header ("Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate"); // HTTP/1.1
header ("Pragma: no-cache"); //
HTTP/1.0

Hope this helps
