I understand that on pages that are posted (ie: input form) you don't want that cached, otherwise it won't recognize the new params past.
in the web.xml I use:
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>CacheFilter</filter-name>
<url-pattern>*.do</url-pattern>
<init-param>
<param-name>/business.search.do</param-name>
<param-value>nocache</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>cacheTimeout</param-name>
<param-value>1</param-value>
</init-param>
</filter-mapping>
where the url /business.search.do is a posted page searching for businesses by keywords. It keeps caching. so I tried to add in the filter if(request.getMethod().equalsIgnoreCase("post")){
//code here to exit the filter
}
but it comes up with a can of worms full of errors.
suggestions?
