Appendix 5. General

Appendix 5.1. 9.1 Browser Caching

The WebServer supports browser caching by filling in the Served File's date and Last- Modified date as required.

The WebServer does not use the file date and time to support caching. It uses the FieldServer reboot time. This is considered the file creation / last-modified date for all files.

HTML files are never cached. They are always served with a HTTP-200 response.

Other files may be cached. When the browser fills in the 'If-Modified-Since' header field with a date that is newer than the reboot date then the FS responds with an HTTP-304 response and does not serve the file as it knows the browser has cached the file. To clear the cache reboot the FieldServer or use Ctrl-F5 to force a re-read without caching.
