I don't know if this is already taken care of, but I am wondering whether users ever see an out of date calendar page when they navigate to my calendar -- i.e. does it always download a current copy, or does it sometimes open a locally cached copy which may be out of date?

Thanks again for this great script!

That depends on a lot of things, none of which is with the script itself. Browsers could cache previous calendar pages as could a user's ISP.

You could add additional 'no cache' meta tag headers to template files in addition to the ones already displayed and even modify the script files to send no cache headers with its output but still that is no guaranty I'm afraid. IE seems determine to cache some web pages whatever a web designers tries.

When I worked for Key Bank Internet Banking support a few years ago, we used to advise customers to change the cache behavior ("Check for newer versions of stored pages...") of their browsers to "Every visit to the page". This is found under Tools>Internet Options...>Temporary Internet Files>Settings...

Of course getting your visitors to make this change might be easier said than done, especially once they realize it can really slow down their browsing on graphics-intensive sites. (And personally, I hate to force reloads of pages that use TinyMCE to create WYSIWYG text boxes!)
