The cache referred to in these tags is not the local cache on the user's computer, but rather any proxy cache. You might consider (yeah I know it's distasteful) putting a little note on your auto-generated pages suggesting that the user force-reload the page for the most current information. (On the Mac, I think both Nav and IE, hold down the Option key while clicking the Reload button; I don't know the key for Windows or UNIX...) -Walter
