Putting cache control information in the HTML (including
HEAD) is essentially useless for non-browser caches, unless
the origin server copies the information into the proper
HTTP headers.
Cache control information must go in the HTTP headers, where
it can be used for images and other non-HTML documents, as
well.
The article referenced in the other reply gives more
details.
