Changes
The
action="cache"
attribute caches on both
the server and client, and
the cache and optimal
values are equivalent.
A new
action
value,
serverCache
, caches pages
on the server only. It is
functionally identical to the
the
action="cache"
attribute value in
ColdFusion 5.
The
directory
and
cacheDirectory
attributes
are now equivalent. You
can use either attribute with
any action. In ColdFusion
5, you used
directory
with
action="flush"
, and
cacheDirectory
with all
other action values.
The default values for
port
and
protocol
are now the
values that are used to
initially access the page. In
earlier releases, the default
value for
port
was
80
, and
the default value for
protocol
was
http
.
