shubhishubhi Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 I want to know if there is some functionlity available in HTML to clear the browser cache. I specifically need this functionality to clear the applet cache... because whenever we update our applet we have to ask the users to manually clear the cache to be able to use the new version of the applet. Any suggestions / inputs are welcome. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/105903-clear-browser-cache/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
soycharliente Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 HTML cannot DO anything (like perform actions an execute functions). It is simply a language that displays and formats text for rendering to the user.

haku Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Add a version number to the end of your applet. Then as you update the applet, you update the version number in the html. Since it's not the same version number as before, it will automatically download the new version.
