我注意到一些浏览器(特别是Firefox和Opera)非常热衷于使用.css和.js文件的缓存副本,甚至在浏览器会话之间。当您更新其中一个文件时,这会导致一个问题,但用户的浏览器会继续使用缓存的副本。
当文件发生更改时,强迫用户浏览器重新加载文件的最优雅的方法是什么?
理想情况下,该解决方案不会强制浏览器在每次访问页面时重新加载文件。
我发现John Millikin和da5id的建议很有用。这有一个专门的术语:自动版本控制。
我在下面发布了一个新的答案,这是我最初的解决方案和约翰的建议的结合。
SCdF建议的另一个想法是将伪查询字符串附加到文件中。(一些自动使用时间戳作为伪查询字符串的Python代码是由pi..提交的)
然而,关于浏览器是否缓存带有查询字符串的文件还存在一些讨论。(请记住,我们希望浏览器缓存该文件并在以后的访问中使用它。我们只希望它在文件更改时再次获取该文件。)
我发现在资源URL中使用基于时间戳或哈希的区分器的方法存在一个问题,该方法在服务器请求时被剥离。包含样式表链接的页面也会被缓存。因此,缓存的页面可能会请求较旧版本的样式表,但它将得到最新版本,这可能与请求页面不兼容,也可能与请求页面不兼容。
To fix this, you either have to guard the requesting page with a no-cache header or meta, to make sure it gets refreshed on every load. Or you have to maintain all versions of the style file that you ever deployed on the server, each as an individual file and with their differentiator intact so that the requesting page can get at the version of the style file it was designed for. In the latter case, you basically tie the versions of the HTML page and the style sheet together, which can be done statically and doesn't require any server logic.
如果你添加session-id作为JavaScript/CSS文件的伪参数,你可以强制“会话范围缓存”:
<link rel="stylesheet" src="myStyles.css?ABCDEF12345sessionID" />
<script language="javascript" src="myCode.js?ABCDEF12345sessionID"></script>
如果需要版本级缓存,可以添加一些代码来打印文件日期或类似内容。如果您正在使用Java,您可以使用自定义标记以一种优雅的方式生成链接。
<link rel="stylesheet" src="myStyles.css?20080922_1020" />
<script language="javascript" src="myCode.js?20080922_1120"></script>
感谢Kip的完美解决方案!
我对它进行了扩展,将其用作Zend_view_Helper。因为我的客户端在虚拟主机上运行他的页面,我也为此扩展了它。
/**
* Extend filepath with timestamp to force browser to
* automatically refresh them if they are updated
*
* This is based on Kip's version, but now
* also works on virtual hosts
* @link http://stackoverflow.com/questions/118884/what-is-an-elegant-way-to-force-browsers-to-reload-cached-css-js-files
*
* Usage:
* - extend your .htaccess file with
* # Route for My_View_Helper_AutoRefreshRewriter
* # which extends files with there timestamp so if these
* # are updated a automatic refresh should occur
* # RewriteRule ^(.*)\.[^.][\d]+\.(css|js)$ $1.$2 [L]
* - then use it in your view script like
* $this->headLink()->appendStylesheet( $this->autoRefreshRewriter($this->cssPath . 'default.css'));
*
