Txp/Firefox is a deadly combo

You may remember that I noted a bug in my site about 50 days ago in this post. Well, I finally tracked down the source of this bug. Apparently Textpattern doesn’t tell Firefox that anything has changed on the site unless I update an article. A certain setting in Textpattern makes it so that Firefox will load from cache if nothing has changed. Since editing the CSS file isn’t considered a change, the changes aren’t reflected unless you clear your Firefox cache, edit an article, or turn off the Send “Last-Modified” header setting in the Textpattern Advanced administration tab. Details of the issue can be found in this Textpattern Forum thread.
