[users@httpd] How to cache the responses for XMLHttpRquest
Hi,
I want to cache the responses for XMLHttpRequest, that is dynamic
content. I have configureed http.conf using Expires to add headers to
those responses. However, I still could not find those responses to be
able to be cached by use of web browser (Firefox 2.0).
Also, I tried to add Header to enable Cache-Control and etc. However
they could not work either.
So I am not sure if there is a way to cache XMLHttpRequest.
Thanks,
Erica

might also be worth reading this:
http://www.mnot.net/cache_docs/
http://www.mooreds.com/wordpress/archives/000382
the 2nd of which has links to caching support in browsers
Basically it is possible, driven by the browser, and different headers
take priority, and you have to code your application to use caching,
sending if-modified0since and sometimes other headers in order to get
the deisired response, use a proxy to discover what your browser says to
the server, and replicate that in your xhr calls.

Apache doesn't know that a given request is an XMLHttpRequest - it's no
different from a normal request.
Are the requests that you're making identical each time?
Can you post some examples of the URL that's being requested?
What does your access_log say, e.g. is it returning 200 for each request?
