http-caching

Is it possible to use HTTP caching for conditional GET requests over a secure HTTPS connection? I've got caching working over non-secure HTTP, but when I switch to HTTPS the browser stops sending if-none-match and if-modified-since headers, so the caching breaks. I've tried various Cache-Control settings like public, max-age=3600 and whatnot, no dice. This happens in both Safari and Chrome, so I'm assuming the SSL is breaking it somehow. Is caching not allowed over SSL? And just to be clear, the server is indeed properly setting the etag and last-modified headers, but the browser is not

I'm having trouble formulating HTTP cache headers for the following situation. Our server has large data that changes perhaps a couple times a week. I want browsers to cache this data. Additionally, I want to minimize latency from conditional gets as the network is unreliable. The end behavior I'm after is this: Client requests a resource it hasn't seen before. Server responds with resource along with ETag and max-age (24 hours). Until 24 hours has passed, client will use cached resource. After the expiration date, client will perform a validate request ( If-None-Match: [etag] ) If resource

I am a web developer, have worked with PHP and .NET both. having over a year of experience working on web I haven't been able to understand the browser caching features thoroughly, I hope Web Gurus here can help me with it. Questions I have in my mind are: How does browser actually caches stuff, does it request for to see if the cached file has changed on the server or not, What is the Ideal way for a developer to make use of browser caching to its full, but also to be able to push new changes on the site with no hassle at all. I think if browser somehow caches my CSS and JS and Images, and

I'm trying to use http caching. In my controller I'm setting a response as follows: $response->setPublic(); $response->setMaxAge(120); $response->setSharedMaxAge(120); $response->setLastModified($lastModifiedAt); dev mode In dev environment first response is a 200 with following headers: cache-control:max-age=120, public, s-maxage=120 last-modified:Wed, 29 Feb 2012 19:00:00 GMT For next 2 minutes every response is a 304 with following headers: cache-control:max-age=120, public, s-maxage=120 This is basically what I expect it to be. prod mode In prod mode response headers are different. Note

The CXF documentation mentions caching as Advanced HTTP : CXF JAXRS provides support for a number of advanced HTTP features by handling If-Match, If-Modified-Since and ETags headers. JAXRS Request context object can be used to check the preconditions. Vary, CacheControl, Cookies and Set-Cookies are also supported. I'm really interested in using (or at least exploring) these features. However, while "provides support" sounds really interesting, it isn't particularly helpful in implementing such features. Any help or pointers on how to use If-Modified-Since, CacheControl or ETags? Actually, the

I am caching Get method in webapi with strathweb ,now i want to use same cached output in my another webapi method Search .So how to access cached Get result in Search Method?How to find Cache Key to use it in another methods? [CacheOutput(ClientTimeSpan = 300, ServerTimeSpan = 300)] public IEnumerable<Movie> Get() { return repository.GetEmployees().OrderBy(c => c.MovieId); } Rather than using the OutputCache , you could consider using MemoryCache to store your results in memory for faster access. You can store the results in cache (taking example from the following : http://www.allinsight.de
