I don't know how this particular web page works, but it is not
possible for a server to push data out to the browser, only the
browser can request it from the server.  If you have set the options
so that WWWOFFLE is not caching the page then it should work as well
with WWWOFFLE as without it.

You would need to capture some log files from WWWOFFLE to be able to
see how the web site works and what requests are sent from the browser
and which ones WWWOFFLE decides to cache that it shouldn't.
