Re: Caching

Hey! About " Header set Expires "Thu, 15 Apr 2010 20:00:00 GMT" " The problem is the files might change, lets say - every week. How can I use " Header set Expires "Thu, 15 Apr 2010 20:00:00 GMT"" to something like Header set Expires "today plus week" (or X seconds / y minutes / etc...)
