I've always steered clear of adding any cache expiry details to my .htaccess

I'm curious to know though if there is anything suitable/useful that would be good/recommended to use?

Thanks,

Steve

Hi Steve
Unless you have a really high traffic site and bandwidth is a problem, personally I would leave caching alone. For the PHP pages of course it would cause problems but for CSS files and JS files it's a bit of a pain when you update.

Thanks Vince,

Those page speed test sites always encourage to do this but my feeling has always been that this is asking for trouble.

Thanks,

Hi Steve

A client of mine used to treat those test sites as gospel & then started carrying out their recommendations to the letter which caused no end of headaches. That resulted in myself getting calls by the bucket load, so in the end I sacked him off. It's bad enough fluffing up stuff myself, didn't need some other Herbert getting in on the act

Couldn't agree more Steve

I've realised over the years that so many of those 'recommendations' are absolute nonsense.
