Setting the cache in jQuery $.post() to be false?
I have this code:
$.post("php/tagNotifUnsub.php", $("#tagNotifUnsub").serialize(), function(){
$('#tagSubDiv').load('tags.php #tagSubDiv', function(){$( "button, input:submit, input:button, a#jql, input:radio" ).button();});
});
I understand that $.post is just another name for $.ajax. And I know $.ajax has caching on by default. I want it to be uncached. How can I do that?
$.post is not cached.
Pages fetched with POST are never cached, so the cache and ifModified options in jQuery.ajaxSetup() have no effect on these requests.

Partly right, Daniel A. White!
On devices running iOS6 and Safari, POST is also cached.
What you can do is the following:
$.ajaxSetup({
type: 'POST',
headers: { "cache-control": "no-cache" }
});
You mention $.ajax
You can turn caching off for ajax like this:
$.ajax({
url: "/myURL?",
cache: false,
});
