Some DOM application uses the 'XMLHttpRequest' object to retrieve some XML
document. If the document was retrieved some time ago (cached) then the browser
decides no to check for new versions of it.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load the XML document, using 'XMLHttpRequest' object
2. Change something in the XML document
3. Reload the XML document
Actual Results:
The browser cached the first version of the XML document, and uses the cached
version for every consequent load.
Expected Results:
It must check for a new document version, and if new the it must update its
cache accordingly.
Here is the full test case:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Test XMLHttpRequest</TITLE>
<SCRIPT>
function load( xmlHref ) {
var xmlhttpRequest;
xmlhttpRequest = new XMLHttpRequest();
xmlhttpRequest.open( "GET", xmlHref, false );
xmlhttpRequest.send( null );
return xmlhttpRequest.responseXML;
}
function serialize( oXML ) {
return (new XMLSerializer()).serializeToString( oXML );
}
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<FORM action="javascript:void(0)">
<INPUT type="text" name="href" size="80">
<INPUT type="button" value="Load & Display"
onclick="alert(serialize(load(this.form.href.value)))">
</FORM>
</BODY>
</HTML>

This is no longer "fixed" now that bug 268844 got checked in, and in fact, this bug shouldn't be fixed. Whether or not a XMLHttpRequest should be cached is up to the caller (by setting http headers on the request) or the server to decide, not the browser.
