[OpenLayers-Users] Caching layerimages by browsers

[Dipl. Inf. Carsten Eider]

Hi list,

while examining my WMS-Servers logs i was surpprised by the amount of
WMS-requests I found within.
Using Firefox and Firebug i recognized, that the tiles were not cached
by the browser, i.e.
each time they came into the viewport of the map they were re-requested!

Is there a way to use cached images by the browser instead of requesting
them time and again?

THX
Carsten
