Send it a dummy parameter in the get. I like to use a little
random
number.

So instead of foo.php?param=bar, which is cached because it
is the same
URL over and over again (smart little browser), use
foo.php?param=bar&junk=somerandomnumber

This way, the browser sees a different URL, so it can't
find it in the
cache table, and it actually sends it to the server.

Hope that helps.

~A!
