Question

Answer 1

+2 A:

You have to change the Expires: header of these pages to make them expire in the far future, allowing user browsers to cache them.

You can use mod_expires in apache, or this technique. Here is an article explaining how to do it with IIS.

-1, I think he knows the what, YSlow tells him, not the how.

then how do you answer his question ? without knowing the server technology, that's pretty much everything I can tell him.

Valentin Rocher 2010-01-22 21:51:25

Link him info on how to do it on the two most popular servers, like Apache or IIS.

I don't have server access, I have to do this in code. I'm trying to do this using a HttpHanlder, but I think that may have a easier way to do this. By the way, I'm using this metas in my page:<META HTTP-EQUIV="CACHE-CONTROL" CONTENT="PUBLIC"><META HTTP-EQUIV="EXPIRES" CONTENT="Mon, 22 Jul 2010 11:12:01 GMT">

I resolve the problem using a HttpHandler component:www.codeproject.com/KB/aspnet/CssAndJavaScriptOptimizer.aspxIs there a easier way to resolve the problem? Maybe in global.asax?

Answer 2

A:

IIS allows you to set the Expires header automatically on all static content served. This is the method that I typically use.

I don't have IIS acces... =/

Fernando 2010-01-22 22:24:17

I believe Apache has the same ability. But I am much less versed in it than IIS.
