Urgent problem - IE doesn't refresh with AJAX 1

[tcardoso]

Hi...

I have a page with AJAX call onload... but in IE if I have in definitions to search for an update of the page automatically (most users have)... then the ajax code its not going to the server it simply shows what the result that IE have on temporary files.

I cannot ask to all users to put in definitions "always get the page"... So what can I do? In firefox this problem isn't happening.

Please help

I created my own custom AJAX object, and the way I get around this is appending a timestamp to the querystring on the AJAX call. With a unique timestamp in the querystring the server will treat it as a new request each time - so you never pull cached data. These 2 lines are straight from my ajax.js file and they fix the problem you mentioned:

var ajaxRightNow = new Date();
var noCacheAjaxurl = ajaxurl + ((/\?/.test(ajaxurl)) ? "&" : "?") + "ajaxRandomTimestamp=" + ajaxRightNow.getTime();
