.htaccess: how to remove Cache-Control's "max-age"?

  • 772

In the header response, I want to remove Cache-Control's "max-age"? I don't want to completely unset Cache-Control, though -- just want to get rid of max-age. So the following would be wrong:

Header unset Cache-Control

I think there is a way to do this using "edit" instead of "unset". However, I'm not sure how to use "edit".

Suggestions?

apache-2.2 .htaccess

    You can do something like:

    Header edit Cache-Control ^(.*)max-age=(\d+)(.*)$ \1\3

    This should remove the 'max-age= from the Cache-Control header.

  2. Set it with different value:

    Header set Cache-Control "private, no-cache, no-store, ..."

    It will replace the previous header.
