ASP.NET: Web Browser Cache Control

Stop browser caching of Web Forms (.NET Framework).

By default — what most internet users leave their web browsers at — web pages are cached but it is easy to make the browser reload them everytime.

<%@ Page Language="VB" %>
<script runat="server">
	Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)

		Response.AddHeader("Pragma", "no-cache") ' HTTP/1.0
		Response.CacheControl = "no-cache"
		Response.Cache.SetAllowResponseInBrowserHistory(False)
		Response.Cache.SetCacheability(HttpCacheability.NoCache)
		Response.Cache.SetNoStore()
		Response.Expires = -1
		
		time.InnerHtml = DateTime.Now.ToString()
	End Sub
</script>
<html>
	<head><title></title></head>
	<body>
		<span id="time" runat="server"></span>
	</body>
</html>
<%@ Page Language="C#" %>
<script runat="server">
	void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
	{
		Response.AddHeader("Pragma", "no-cache"); // HTTP/1.0
		Response.CacheControl = "no-cache";
		Response.Cache.SetAllowResponseInBrowserHistory(false);
		Response.Cache.SetCacheability(HttpCacheability.NoCache);
		Response.Cache.SetNoStore();
		Response.Expires = -1;
		
		time.InnerHtml = DateTime.Now.ToString();
	}
</script>
<html>
	<head><title></title></head>
	<body>
		<span id="time" runat="server"></span>
	</body>
</html>
