The JS Interpreter does not do any caching, but your browser does. When
doing development, it always makes sense to do a 'force refresh', and
occasionally, to view the CSS file directly and refresh that. The
caching headers -- and proxies between you and the server -- are
entirely dependant on your environment, but are unrelated to OpenLayers
or its use of Javascript to load CSS. It's just the same problem all web
developers face every day.
