Cache-control header problem

Hello,

I already reported this one in the issue tracker, but since it doesn’t seem to be frequented, I figured it might be a good idea to repost it here:

- What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Enable last-modified header

- What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Expected: cache-control should be must-revalidate, public or private. Make
this a setting. Only back-end pages should return a no-cache header, to
prevent unwanted backend caching.

Observed: all pages, including front-end pages, return a no-cache header.
This prevents a proxy or local cache from caching the content.

- What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

4.2.0 on CentOS linux

- Please provide any additional information below.

Sending a no-cache should be restricted to backend pages only. As it is
now, a proxy will not be able to cache textpattern sites when the
last-modified header is enabled. I ran across this issue when adding
mod_cache to my apache distribution to limit the amount of CMS calls.

Re: Cache-control header problem

happening for me too. Re: http://code.google.com/p/textpattern/issues/detail?id=51

http://www.withremote.com/textpattern/txp_content/forms/article/default.php is an external page I have set up for controlling my default article form ( thanks to Hicksdesign ) on http://www.withremote.com

I did an initial upload of the page without the xxxxxxxxxx at the top of the page. Then I added the xxxxxxxxxx to the top of the page and expected to get a changed result when reloading the page……to no avail.
