This is untrue so please don't perpetuate this myth. If you send the `Cache-Control: public` header, the resource will be cached to disk just as it would without HTTPS.
- laumars 13y ago> This is untrue so please don't perpetuate this myth. That sentence is somewhat unnecessary as I wouldn't have posted that unless I believed it to be true. The rest of your post is valid enough (in fact extremely helpful) not to need to such a prefix. Anyhow, I'm not out to start an argument and I genuinely am grateful you have corrected me because obviously I wasn't aware of the "public" option in the cache-control header and this is something I can actually put to use right away. So thank you for the correction :)
- ars_technician 13y agoIt may have been a little harsh, but I think it was necessary to point out that it wasn't true and that he wasn't just posting some hack or workaround.
- agwa 13y ago> not to need to such a prefix You're right; sorry about that. I do get annoyed when I see bogus reasons for not deploying HTTPS. It's made all the worse by people who actually know better but spread FUD because they stand to make a profit from selling expensive HTTPS accelerator appliances. But that's clearly not the case here and doesn't excuse my comment, which, upon reflection, was too harsh.
- laumars 13y agoThat's ok. As you said, I should know better (and now I do)
