netscape cache	Can't Post

I know there must be a way to empty certain files from a person's cache through Netscape, does anyone know of a subroutine I can add to a script that will do this? I need it for security reasons.

thanks

I'm would like to run this on a UNIX system via a CGI script. Does that help?

As far as I know, there is no way to clear a remote computer's cache. That would be a VERY nasty security hole if browsers allows that. You can, however, try the nocache pragma, which Netscape adheres to and IE pretty much ignores.
