Hi,
 
Just a
javascript question for openlayers gurus.
 
I often
have to make small changes in my javscript scripts..e.g adding a layer/
changing a layer´s name etc.
 
If the user
does not clear the browser cache before loading the application, the cached
version will always be loaded. I got a tip which entailed writing ?1 to the end
of the javascript script in the html page..
 
e.g.
<script type="text/javascript"
src="app.js?1"></script> and when I change something just
change ?1 to ?2. But this still deosnt´ensure that the newest script will be
loaded.
 
Does anyone
have another better way to force the clients browser to always load the newest
uncached version?
 
 
thanks,
 
Rob
