I used both lynx and firefox's "Live HTTP Headers" plugin. Both reported something like this: Cache-Control: max-age=0 Expires: Tue, 09 Feb 2010 19:48:16 GMT I think that's good enough. Putting more work into this is not something that I'm signing up for. >Incidentally, while poking around with this, I ran into a spate of >validation errors on the home page. One particularly ugly one is a >second <body> tag on line 261 of the home page. Yes, others have mentioned this before. Please don't take my appreciation for solutions to this particular problem as an indication that I also want to hear about website cleanups. I really don't. I debated whether I should make the above point because it sounds WJM but decided that I'd better say something or this thread would morph into people talking about their favorite web site validation tools. cgf -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
