Nothing to do with NW.
Rather, a Set-Cookie header in a http response will prevent the browser
from caching it.
I'm somewhat jumping the gun be even bring up caching; you should
probably get
your app working first.

The above *prevents* caching. Maybe you want that. If you don't want
caching, then it
doesn't matter whether you use cookies (or https, or POST, or anything
else that busts caches).
My concern was if you *want* browser caching. In that case, you might want:
Header("Cache-Control: max-age=3600")
Header("Cache-Control: pre-check=3600, post-check=3600")
If you want data cached in the browser for one hour.
Oh and you'll want Header("Content-Type: text/plain") if you are sending
text.
