hello all flash gurus..........

i am currently developing a front end flash interface for a government bureau.

the client is seriously worried that the information that is loaded into the flash movie (XML, jpg) will be cached on the user terminal.

does the information that is parsed into the flash movie get cached anywhere and if so what is the easy way to clear the information after each query is submitted?

this is a big project and will have nearly 100,000 entries that is used by many clients hourly...

thanks for your opinions and help.

i believe that only the flash movie itself (the .swf) is cached, but there is a way around this, something with your code so that you can make it not cache your .swf, I know that 2advanced.com does this.

not sure about this, but that is my understanding of it

i think php would be a solution here ;)

and there's meta tag won't allow user to cache your site:

<meta http-equiv="pragma" content="No-Cache">
