Do all web caches understand the "Cache-Control" HTTP header?
- by chris_l
I'd like to avoid the "Expires" header, and use "Cache-Control" only - or maybe the other way around. The headers will account for a significant percentage of my traffic, so I'd prefer not to "use both".
AFAIK, the "Cache-Control" header was standardized in HTTP 1.1, but are there still web caches/proxies in use, which don't understand it?
Note: This could help answering a part of my stackoverflow (bounty) question
