cache-control no-cache directive in the document

Postby tr888 » Fri Jul 23, 2010 2:21 pm

I don't have document-level granular control over cache-policy on the hosting company's server -- whatever policy I'd set would affect all of my pages -- and so I need to specify the cache-policy in the individual document itself. Is that allowed under HTML5? Everything I've tried fails to validate at w3c.

If it is valid to do this in the document rather than in some server-side manifest, what is the HTML5 counterpart to this?

<meta http-equiv="Cache-Control" content="no-cache">

Thanks

A followup to my earlier question: would this cache manifest mean "don't cache anything"?
