This is probably because your browser is sending If-Modified-Since http GET requests and not re-requesting the file since it doesn't appear to have changed. (see http://perl.apache.org/docs/general/correct_headers/correct_headers.html#Conditional_GET) You can verify this is the case by using a simpler http client, like LWP, wget, curl, etc and you should see your filter being run every single time. > What have I to do, that the filter is process every time, a > site is called? If you want to make sure the browsers _never_ cache your content (make really sure that's what you want) and use $r->no_cache(1) http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/api/Apache2/RequestUtil.html#C_no_cache_ But really, it's fairly possible that in your case, this is an annoyance for development, but actually a fairly _good_ feature in general. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Philippe M.
