Updating Freewheel DWF on Remote URL

[sbaldy]

From a webpage I am linking to the freewheel.autodesk.com website to load a DWF that is stored remotely. Everything works fine except when I reload a new DWF to my URL. I know the file is updated on my URL because I have a link to download the DWF directly, but the DWF that is loaded within Freewheel is the old one. I have refreshed, deleted all cookies, temp internet files, off-line content, but it still will not update. I'm confused....

Below is the source code I am using:

src="http://freewheel.autodesk.com/dwf.aspx?path=http:///.dwf"

You may need to specify the cache header time value
on the server where the DWF file is. That way Freewheel will know that it needs
to go get a new one.

I believe Project Freewheel has been corrected to
exhibit the correct behavior. Try

and let us know how that turns out.

Scott -

Thank you for the responce. However, it seems the autodesk.com server controls the caching. The following is the return header from the autodesk server:

Server Microsoft-IIS/6.0X-
Powered-By ASP.NETX-
AspNet-Version 2.0.50727
Content-Type image/jpeg; charset=utf-8
Content-Length 26350
Date Thu, 30 Oct 2008 21:07:45 GMT
Connection keep-alive
Cache-Control public, max-age=345600

This suggests that every 96 hours (345,600 seconds) the files will be re-cached on the autodesk server if not directed to do so more frequenly. I set my webpage to not allow caching and the file is not updating on the autodesk server. Maybe I am doing something wrong. Below is my code:


Header set Cache-Control "no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0"

Are you using Autodesk Freewheel or Project
Freewheel?

I didn't know there was a difference.... This is how I am embedding the Freewheel tool:

Try src=
href="http://freewheel.labs.autodesk.com/dwf.aspx?path=http://www.domain.com/file.dwf">http://freew...

Note the extra .labs in the URL.
