cacheDocVerify()

Syntax

cacheDocVerify #setting
cacheDocVerify()

Description

Function; sets how often the contents of a page on the Internet are refreshed with information from the projector's cache. Possible values are #once (default) and #always.

Specifying #once tells a movie to get a file from the Internet once and then use the file from the cache without looking for an updated version on the Internet.

Specifying #always tells a movie to try to get an updated version of the file each time the movie calls a URL.

The form cacheDocVerify() returns the current setting of the cache.

The cacheDocVerify function is valid only for movies running in Director or as projectors. This function is not valid for Shockwave movies because they use the network settings of the browser in which they run.

on resetCache
	current = cacheDocVerify()
	if current = #once then
		alert "Turning cache verification on"
		cacheDocVerify #always
	end if
end
