<div>Hello,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>How can I force clients to refresh GeoMOOSE whenever changes are made to the mapbook? I would like to cache as much of the site as possible, but I also want to make sure users will see new changes. Does anyone have any strategies to do this when using
Apache web server?</div>
