http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html
See Section 14.9
To prevent caching, for example, HTTP headers or HTML headers should contain
,----[ Code ]
| Pragma: no-cache
| Cache-Control: no-cache
`----

Apache specifics at: comp.infosystems.www.servers.unix
To debug, use Firefox with the Live Headers extension.
