[Pmwiki-users] Problem with SimplePageCache script.

[Patrick R. Michaud]

I haven't looked at the script until just now, but it seems
to me like the timestamp portion of the script is working a bit harder
than it needs to--I'm not sure what the opendir()/readdir() sequences
are supposed to accomplish.

The problem may have to do with browser caching--since the script isn't
reproducing the header() calls that PmWiki normally generates to
prevent pages from being stored in a browser cache, your browser may
be caching the old non-edited version of the document even though the
wiki cache is being updated on disk.

However, Reimer's script looks pretty straightforward and useful, so I may
update it a bit to add some robustness and then add it to the PmWiki 
distribution so that someone can enable caching of generated pages by 
simply placing $EnableCache=1 in local.php or something like that.
