[final kaoss]

No, I never did set expires, I'm using this in my htaccess. If you want to compare the load times on my site, select the df2 skin at the bottom left.

The extra > and < is to indicate what should be replaced by what, but i understand that it is a little unhandy, if you want to select-copy-replace multiple lines.

I am adding icons step by step. Thats why the Logo is currently not added.

It is weird, that you didnt noticed a significant drop in the requests, using the addon. Can you send me a link, so i can try your implementation in the test skin?


I think you set the expires entity-header and cache-control header in your htaccess for images, right? This should behave totally independent to my addon.

I just double checked this an its working correct on our forum.

My Browsers sends:

GET /images/sprites/sprite.png HTTP/1.1
If-Modified-Since: Sun, 17 Jul 2011 21:49:42 GMT

and gets as response

HTTP/1.1 304 Not Modified

and then he loads the file from the browser-cache.

So that this isnt working on your forum seems also a little bit weird. Please send me a link, so i can check this in your test skin and the corresponding .httacces file, so i can check your cache settings.

Best regards
Sebastian

So I wind up losing a grade and on the forum refresh, it's noticeable that the images reload on the test skin
