Hi all, I have a query to throw top 10 random records, to show on my front page; althought each time I run the query from the db I get different records (this is, the randomize is working fine at the db end) when connection this query as a grid datasourse I get the very same each time; I supposed it was a chache issue, so that is why I included

   
Response.CacheControl="public"  
Response.AddHeader "Pragma", "public"  
response.Buffer=false  
response.expires=-1  

But still no joy; does not work; I am wondering how to force a requery; let´s say on the beforeshow event, create an adodb.recordset and push it to the grid; how to? any ideas are welcome!

Thanks

This will not work all the time. IIS has to be set not to cache the site and even then, in my experience it is not 100%.

To stop caching try https instead of http - that is why a lot of sites use secure pages, they are not allowed to cache.

Good luck.

this is 99.9% chance of being a browser issue - you are seeing a cached page

in IE:

Tools > Internet Options > Browsing History button [Settings]
then make sure that for Check for newer versions - Every time I visit the webpage is selected

FF must have something similiar but cant remember it now

Thanks for your reply!

ok - let's see we know it is being cached somewhere, to try and save bandwidth perhaps - can it be something on the client PC or I suppose whoever your DSL connection provider is can also do a bit of caching to save them retrieving the file again

grabbing from some of my older projects I have:

<META HTTP-EQUIV="PRAGMA" CONTENT="NO-CACHE">

and then this from MS: ;-) scary

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/222064/

ps. you are not using CCS caching? ;-)

One thing you can try is setting a query string parameter to the value of timer and placing that in your refresh link. That way each time the link is pressed a new page will be forced to generate. When combined with all of the "do not cache" headers this should give you what you a way to always get new content on the page.

thought the same thing - but this is is his homepage you don't have control over the link - unless you do a pass through go for say index.asp and then pass it on with a random number to a receiving page which is now your homepage

hacking it like this might not be the best, I'd rather find out who, what & why is doing it

You're right its not the best approach for a home page as it will generate lots of extra crawler traffic. What about using an AJAX callback to pull a new piece of content each time. Start the page with an embedded content table surrounded by a div with an ID that you assign then use an AJAX periodical updater (ala prototype.js) to grab a new version of the table at a specified interval.

Thanks for your replies; the URL is http://huatulcosecreto.com where you can see at the right column a grid; this is the mentioned one. mean while I am trying the ' <META HTTP-EQUIV="PRAGMA" CONTENT="NO-CACHE"> ' tag, I´ll let you know. No ccs caching; no IPS issue I´ve used a couple (diff) ones.

Thanks Ill keep you all updated!

Thanks ThenuisP, yes, that is what should change with every hit to the homepage. Still no joy here...
