Hi all,

When I browse my site in ssl w/ IE, all rollover images come to very slow to response. For security concern, I don't wanna cache any of the content to the local disk and I advise the visitors don't cache any of them also.

Is it impossible to swap the images a bit faster in such circumstance? Netscape (exclude Netscape 6) does it well while the images are cached in memory. Can I cache the images for swapping in the memory in IE too?

Any advice is appreciated.

Good day.

I've noted in IE5.5 that, if you set the caching for "Every visit to the page", you will see the browser constantly loading images in rollovers, every single time you mouseOver.

This will drastically slow performance of the browser.

As for your security concerns, uh, where exactly did you get the idea that allowing images to be cached locally was a security breach?

Just wanna alter the behaviour of IE as Netscape does in SSL (cached in memory *only* and no physical disk write). I've checked the response header Cache-Control of http, but helpless at this moment. :(

Good day.
