I am forcing some files to be cached (through headers like Cache-Control, etc). Are there any errors with Internet Explorer 6+ trying to cache those files if they’re sent through https (SSL)?
Thanks for helping.

No there aren’t. IE in general is not renowned for obeying standards, but this one it respects OK.
However, beware of proxies: some of them will not cache content until you have
publicin theCache-Controlheader.(and beware that IE6 will not use HTTP/1.1 with proxies by default, which means, by its twisted logic, that it won’t either use keepalive or compression!)
