Re: simple question about expires and pragma no-cache

prgma no-cache only if its generated by client not that significant in case
when it's generated by origin server
because in http rfc, its not clearly mentioned (As far as server is
concerned)

squid will cache those by default cache if its generated by server

hope this will help
