Stop jQuery .load response from being cached

Question

I have the following code making a GET request on a URL:

$(\'#searchButton\').click(function() {
    $(\'#inquiry\').load(\'/portal/?f=searchBilling&pid=         


        

Answer 1

You have to use a more complex function like $.ajax() if you want to control caching on a per-request basis. Or, if you just want to turn it off for everything, put this at the top of your script:

$.ajaxSetup ({
    // Disable caching of AJAX responses
    cache: false
});
