Forum OpenACS Q&A: Re: adding header to resource files: cache-control max-age=NNNN

My case scenario is mainly with photo-album. So it would be a good idea to use a parameter per package.

I'll change it in my setup to use only inside photo-album. Thanks 😉

Just to keep documented here. I'm using it now in photo album to serve images (6 months cache)
