 ... does

requestHeaders: ['cache-control','no-cache','pragma','no-cache'],

apply to both GET and PUT operations?

Can I ensure a page I retrieve will not be cached by the browser using
Ajax.Request, GET?

One sure fire way to prevent caching is to include a cache buster in 
your
request URL...

var cacheBuster = "?" + new Date() * 1;
var url = yourURL + cacheBuster;

...do Request...

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll give it a try.

Sam

...oops, this should be obvious, but replace the ? with a "&c=" (or
something) if your url already contains other parameters... you'll 
figure
that part out I'm sure...
