HTML <head>

Hello,

today I took a look at the head part of the page:
  • PathToMyMantis.tld/view_all_bug_page.php
The result was this:

Code: Select all

<head>
	...
	<meta http-equiv="Cache-Control" content="no-cache" /> 
	...
	<meta http-equiv="Cache-Directive" content="no-cache" />
	...
</head>
I noted that a Cache-Directive is used but I was not familiar with this header field.
So I took a look at There I found only Cache-Control specified here: Is it possible that Mantis is using a wrong header field (besides the correct one)?

Thanks, Udo

At first sight, you are right.
I am wondering because this code has been introduced already in 2001.
Searching the web shows also other places where this is used.
Maybe it's just another example of conflicts between standardization and reality or an example of copy/paste programming.

You should post this to the developer mailing list where possibly someone responds with a better knowledge of it.
