    GIFs getting loaded each time

    IS there any setting I have to make so that my page does not download the GIFs each time it is accessed from the same browser.

    I used IE with cache enabled but looks like my page loads the unchanged GIF files each time.

    Apahce + Tomcat is the environment but the jsp page has URLs to GIF files that are actually served by Apache itself.

      Hi,

      have a look at my Apache Howto about using the Expires header tag. This tells the browser NOT to request the resource again but to load it from its own cache instead until a certain point in time is reached. Although I experienced that many browsers are ignoring this. Requesting the file again and getting served a 302 message instead they finally will use the cached copy.

      Regards,

      Bernd
