$.getJSON returning cached data in IE8

Question

I\'m playing around with ASP.net MVC and JQuery at the moment. I\'ve come across behavour which doesn\'t seem to make sense.

I\'m calling JQuery\'s $.getJSON

Answer 1

Thanks Kent for your answer. Using $.ajax('{ cache: no }'); worked perfectly. [edit]

Or at least I thought i did. Seems that the jquery $.getJSON isn't reading any changes made to the $.ajax object.

The solution that ended up working was to add a new parameter manually

var noCache = Date();
$.getJSON("/somepage/someaction", { "noCache": noCache }, Callback);

the date resolution is only to the minute; which effectively means this solution still caches for upto one minute. This is acceptable for my purposes.
