Here is an example of `your-manifest-file` to force updates to all resources.
CACHE MANIFEST
NETWORK:

and append `manifest` attribute to `<html>` element.
<html manifest="your-manifest-file">
Required for all HTML files you want to disable cache. Can not be avoided because it is specification of HTML5.
Problem
In HTML4 we used stuff like ``` <meta http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache" /> <meta http-equiv="Cache-Control" content="no-cache, must-revalidate" /> <meta http-equiv="Expires" content="Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00 GMT" /> ``` to get the browser to not cache the pages. What should I use in HTML5 to get the browser not to cache my pages. I don't want any pages at all cached. I've seen something about ``` <html manifest="example.appcache"> ... </html> ``` but it seems like a lot of work to specify all the pages in the whole web application just to get the browser not to cache anything. Is there a simpler way? If I omitt the manifest part from the html tag, will that make the browser not cache anything? I.e. ``` <html> ... </html> ``` Or will it take that as an ok to cache everything?
