Hi,

I am running into an issue with IFrame in Chrome. I set the src for the IFrame. Hitting reload (F5), sometime the content of the IFrame is never request from the server. The behavior is inconsistent. Most of the time, the IFrame content is request from the server, but it will eventually get into the state where the html file, javascript, json, etc.. will not request from the server to re-validate whether the browser cache is still valid or not.

Anyone know if this is a bug? And what is the correct approach to have the IFrame to re-validate the cache without having the server telling the browser not to cache anything.

On the other hand, FireFox is working as expected. It always request the server to check whether the IFrame needs to invalidate the cache or not.

Thanks,
Patrick

There are definitely some bugs in our caching decisions during reload. This might be an example of http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=260130 ?

Also, try hitting Control + F5, which usually temporarily ignores the cache.
