Nice. In this way, We don't need mod_expires.c.

This could also be done with:

ExpiresActive On
ExpiresByType image/gif A2592000 # + 1 month after being accesed

If your server doesn't support the module mod_expires.c, you'll get a 500 Server Side Error when trying to invoke it with Expires statements.

I can't use it, apparently, on a site created with MS FrontPage (2000). I am using it between the tags, before the body tags. My site is on an Apache server.

Hello All,

For ASP user like me, Expire Header can be turn on using web.config file. Refer my blog post below for more information.
"How to Add Expires Headers in ASP.NET.

I have tested in on GoDaddy Window Shared hosting and it works.

Thanks.

Regards,

I get this working for all files withing my site.
This time I went for some cloud CDN to serve static content. Now the htaccess is not supposed to be working for the cloud files so what to do?
How do you tell the browser not to fetch content before a particular period ..from the clouds too????
