Athena effectively does this automatically. If JavaScript source files are changing but the browser isn't requesting the new versions, then there's a bug somewhere that needs to be fixed.
If JScript code is brought to the page via the javaScript classvar class LP(athena.Livepage): javaScript = ('scripts/somescripts.js, 'scripts/otherscripts.js')
I end up with a static path to the scripts and they cling to Firefox.
How would you suggest to bring in additional (foreign, third party) libraries?
Do I have to use the naming kludge or is there a better way.
The correct way is to set the HTTP headers appropriately. I presume /scripts is a static.File - it would be nice generally if static.File had a way to set the Cache-Control values
