Hi,
I am looking at extending tapestry-cacheControl (hosted at
tapestry.formos.com) to work with AJAX requests - currently tapestry uses
POST for all AJAX requests - which effectively prevents caching them. I can
see a number of scenario's where it would be handy to be able to cache them
(e.g. a type ahead search).
I am currently trying to think of a good way to enable this. As far as I can
see there are a few options
- Change/override tapestry.js to use GET instead of POST. The hazard of
this is wrongly configured cache control headers will cause un-expected
results so it may not be fully back compatible.
- Extend tapestry.js and links so they can set the method to GET/POST for
an AJAX request
Has anyone got any ideas of an easier way of doing this?
Thanks
