How to disable cache in InternetExplorer 8

How can I disable cache in IE8 ? We are doing Javascript development and testing it in IE8, but we have to clear the cache every time we make changes to the Javascript files.


Go to Internet Options. On the General tab, under Browsing History click Settings. Select the "Every time I visit the webpage" radio button.

This doesn't "disable" the cache per se, but it should fix your underlying problem - the JS files should be reloaded every time.


Ctrl+F5 Should cause a full page refresh including all that cached javascript.

Occasionally though, you'll still need a cache clear, because even Ctrl+F5 won't work, for reasons beyond comprehension IE can't even get "refresh" right 100% of the time.
