HAY GUYS

Ok. There's a Flash section of my website that I only require to upload a XML file in order to be, well, updated:

www.malasinfluencias.com/fotografia

The thing is, everytime I upload my XML file the .swf file doesn't show the updates in the page. I've tried to add the following meta tags in order to work:

Code:

<meta http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache">
<meta http-equiv="Expires" content="-1">
<meta http-equiv="Cache-Control" content="no-cache">

but none of them seems to work since (in Firefox) it doesn't update until I clean all the cookies and Cache.

Any suggestions?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Firefox caches fairly aggressively, and it tends to ignore <meta> tags.
While I think it honours headers sent outside of HTML (at the server itself) I am not sure of this.

About the best I can think to do is to try sending PHP headers, if you are capable. If you can use .php files, the code to do this is below:

PHP Code:


			
<?php

header("Pragma: no-cache");

header("Expires: -1");

header("Cache-Control: no-cache");

?>

Though, I am not the most familiar with this kind of thing. Does a simple CTRL+F5 (forceful refresh, essentially) make Firefox show the new changes?

There's nowhere I can't reach.
