Question

I have a UIWebView that loads html, css and javascript.

When ever I do a change in the html or css, that is applied ones I reopen the WebView. But my JavaScripts seems to be cached, changes in them dosen’t get visbile when reopen the WebView.

What am I missing here?

This answer helped me:
Prevent caching of .css files in UIWebView loaded from disk

Basically, you just need to add an incrementer as parameter to the link like ?version=1 or ?time=12345678. For example: <script src="myscript.js?version=123></script>

For a dynamically loaded javascript I’m using:

script.src = "myscript.js?version="+new Date().getTime();

and the script is updated properly, without the version parameter the file is cached in the UIWebView.
