RE: netWindow - PHP data transfer model

Mark,

Thanks so much for your many infos. You should make this stuff part of the
final nW distribution, since hobby developers like me have no idea about it.
I hope we are not boring anybody else on this list, which is supposed to be
for nw-"developers" (and I am turning it into nw-"Support")...

Yes I think I can set the session procedures to do that, have to figure out
how.
But you are saying that absolutely no cookies should be used if NW is to
work correctly, is that correct?

To what do I set it exactly? From a different script, I copied

Header("Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate");
Header("Cache-Control: post-check=0, pre-check=0", false);
Header("Pragma: no-cache");

without, however, understanding what that does (I wanted to avoid the
javascript to be cached, since this prevents from changes in the javascript
to be updated in the browser cache). Is this totally wrong?

Again, can you just copy and paste a sample code I can put into the PHP
"Header" command?

Thanks,
