It’s ok if you know to click reload to bypass the Safari cache, but what about other visitors to my website, who might not know they should do that, and therefore will still see the old version as stored in the cache?
Any thoughts?

Yeah. I find the files generated by Pachyderm also don’t get refreshed by Safari as expected – and there’s no “force reload” command (that I know of) like in Firefox. But, there’s the “Empty Cache…” item under the Safari menu.

The one thing I hate about Safari is that it doesn’t clear the cache when it should. We use NetTracker for web log analysis and the cache always gets in the way in Safari. I’m not even sure what other pages aren’t updating when they should be. Hope they get that right down the road.

yeah… the “hit-reload… nothing happens” is kinda annoying… I usually click in the address bar and hit return/enter and that forces a reload…
