[seaside] caching problem

[saza solutions]

The static content, the gifs, change, that is, for instance: where I must have an edit gif, appears anything else, for instance a delete gif.
   
  What apperars mixed-up in the web brwoser are the gif, the server static files, which I cache its byteArrays in ScriptingSystem formDictionary.
   
  For instance, by means of "toggle halos", and "S" I can see the html generated by the server, this is a piece of html:
   
           <td class="row">
          <a href="...bCzEZZYt">
           <img border="0" alt="" src="/seaside/DES?_s=VmTXqtlZoqwPFQvv" />
          </a>
         </td>
   
  "/seaside/DES?_s=VmTXqtlZoqwPFQvv"  referes to the gif, for instance to the gifA, and the gifA is shown.
   
  Somehow, the same ?_s=VmTXqtlZoqwPFQvv after some time referes to another gif, a gifB. If I click the web brower refresh button, or delete all off-line content of temporary internet files every time or -as I´m trying now- change the expiration time to a shorter time, It seems I´m avoiding this... but I´m not sure.
   
  thank you,

Whats the bigger problem you're trying to solve? Serve static files?
Serve dynamically generated files?
