Cached pictures in iFrame

BKeyport

@mykle1 The problem is that it’s not my images. The images are provided by a 3rd party. Any changes would have to be on the MM.

@bkeyport the server side doesn’t know you sent this extra parm but it makes the url unique, so fetch thinks it has to get it

BKeyport

@sdetweil Oh, so I’d be modifying the code to mmm-iframe to add the timestamp?

sdetweil

@bkeyport the url into the iframe, where ever the things is would want to change

url http://someserver/somepath/somefile.img
over and over the browser say,s OH thats the same, no need to load it, got a copy

url http://someserver/somepath/somefile.img?time=1
url http://someserver/somepath/somefile.img?time=2
url http://someserver/somepath/somefile.img?time=3
url http://someserver/somepath/somefile.img?time=4

they are all different, so the browser reloads… the web server gets the extra parm, but doesn’t use it.

@sdetweil

I gave you an example bro. :-/

@mykle1 I’m trying to understand how to use the example, bro. 😉

Not so good with partial code.

Got it working guys, thanks for your help, I’ve created a merge request with Mr. Wong as well.

If anyone else runs across the thread, and it’s still not merged, my code mods are:

Been there. I only knew because I came across the same issue and didn’t know what to do, too. You’ll notice that I stated that Sean and Strawberry taught me the solution.

Anyway, it looks like you worked it out.

Good on ya, mate! :thumbsup:
