How can I urn off browser caching for all aspx pages?

[Ken Varn]

Is there anyway within my web application that I can have all browser
caching turned off for all aspx pages sent by my IIS server? I need to have
all caching off in order for certain things to work properly, and I can't
always rely on the user disabling their cache settings at the browser level.

Use pragma no-cache

Use pragma no-cache

Just to clarify:

<META HTTP-EQUIV="pragma" Content="nocach e">

.....in your HTML/ASPX file.

Unfortunately, using :
<META HTTP-EQUIV="pragma" Content="nocach e">
doesn't work too good in some browsers.

The correct object to use is :

SetCacheability (HttpCacheabili ty.NoCache)

Agreed.

Perhaps even accompanied by:
SetAllowRespons eInBrowserHisto ry(false)

Hmm...

SetAllowRespons eInBrowserHisto ry(false) is the default.

You only need to set
HttpCachePolicy .SetAllowRespon seInBrowserHist ory
when you need to set it to true ( to override the NoCache setting ).

Thanks for all of the information on this post. I take it that there is no
global way to turn caching off for the entire ASP.NET application? It would
be nice if there was something in web.config where I could turn off caching
for the whole application.

I really hesitated before writing this, since tinkering
with basic functionality could have unexpected results.

You could try disabling the entire OutputCache module.

The OutputCache is a module which is added to ASP.NET's
core via a line in machine.config' s httpmodules section :
<httpModules>
<add name="OutputCac he" type="System.We b.Caching.Outpu tCacheModule" />

You could *experiment* removing that line.
You might have to make other adjustments, too.

Disclaimer: if you do this, you do it on your own behalf.
I do not accept any responsibility for unexpected results.

Good luck, if you decide to experiment with this.

I tried another approach that seems to work, but please verify.

I modified the global.asax.cs file an added the
SetCacheability (HttpCacheabili ty.NoCache) call in the
Application_Beg inRequest event.
