Stop jQuery .load response from being cached

Question

I have the following code making a GET request on a URL:

$(\'#searchButton\').click(function() {
    $(\'#inquiry\').load(\'/portal/?f=searchBilling&pid=         


        

Answer 1

One way is to add a unique number to the end of the url:

$('#inquiry').load('/portal/?f=searchBilling&pid=' + $('#query').val()+'&uid='+uniqueId());

Where you write uniqueId() to return something different each time it's called.
