[ColdBox 4.1] Caching JS files

Communities ColdBox HMVC
1

We are using a POST to populate the main content area of our page which uses an event to get the view/layout etc. There are JS and CSS includes in our layouts. Every time the main content is reloaded, the JS files appear to show up as their own GET requests after the HTML POST with the underscore “cache buster” parameter. Is there a way to have these requests not cache or is there an overall different way to accomplish what we are doing?

This is similar to our function to handler where we have a event.setView:

$.post(uri_to_hander,
function(data){
$("#contentArea")
.css(‘background-color’,‘white’)
.css(‘overflow’,‘scroll’)
.html(data);
}
);

The only thing that enters my head is to look at the headers of the Ajax call and see what they say, it might be that Ajax ignores or setting the cache headers wrong. But I would assume they would adhere to them personally. If that is the case, try setting your own cache headers and see if that makes a difference.
