I have noticed that when updating my web content files (in this case, a silverlight XAP file) the browser does not detect that the file has been updated, and continues to reads the locally cached file. These files will only be updated rarely, so reading from the cached temporary internet files should occur most of the time. My question...
I have a script which at one point returns an image thumbnail using jquery built in java request.

Are here any techniques to avoid this? ...

Now that it's working I use this in a browser to compile: http://localhost/flex/topsight...
I was working on this carousel thing, using the iCarousel. It works pretty nicely with a few images, using MooTools. However when I added 70 pictures (around 30k each) it stopped working so nicely. Having spent some time poking around in the code of iCarousel it looked pretty decent and stable. So this got me thinking: is the problem inh...

Obviously, this breaks horribly if I attempt to run the applet after the is wr...
