Hmmm, I substituted the date("F jS Y G:m A") function for a time() function
and this works fine, on refresh the updated timestamp is visible.
(btw system is apache 1.20 running on Hed Rat 7.1 - php 4.05)
Can anyone explain why the time() function refreshes and returns the correct
value but the date("F jS Y G:m A") does not??
Seems the problem might not be an IE5 caching issue at all ??
Regs,

Try this
<head>
<META Http-Equiv="Cache-Control" Content="no-cache">
<META Http-Equiv="Pragma" Content="no-cache">
<META Http-Equiv="Expires" Content="0">
</head>
works for me - try loading www.shanghaiguide.com/main/index.php3 - should
do time, and display a different image every time.
cheers,
lawrence.

Subject: [PHP] caching and IE 5
Is anyone else having fun and games with IE 5.0 and caching?
I have the no-cache code (below) before anything else in my index file.
Following that an include file is pulled in that has a form with a text
input field that echos the date and time.
Whenever I refresh the page the time does not update to reflect the current
time, it sticks with the time that was displayed when the page was first
loaded.
Even when I close the browser and reopen it the time remains the same. Any
pointers on this issue?
<?php
header ("Expires: Mon, 14 Jul 1963 05:00:00 GMT"); // Date in the past
header ("Last-Modified: " . gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s") . " GMT"); // always
modified
header ("Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate"); // HTTP/1.1
header ("Pragma: no-cache");
?>
<input type="text" name="search_name" value="<?php echo "SEARCH
".date("F jS Y G:m A") ?>">
Thx in advance.
Karl
