mod-expires

This .htaccess file: <IfModule mod_expires.c> ExpiresActive On ExpiresDefault "access plus 4 month" </IfModule> <IfModule mod_headers.c> Header merge X-ModHeaders "Yes, it is installed" </IfModule> ... works as expected in my development box (Windows box, Apache/2.4.10, PHP running as Apache module), where "works" means that it generates the appropriates headers for all resources (static or dynamic). However, in my production server (Linux box, Apache/2.2.31, PHP running as FastCGI with mod_fcgid/2.3.9) it only works for static assets, not for PHP scripts. Am I right suspecting that difference

I have a handful of directories with content which will never change. Is it possible to create .htaccess file which tells the browser that anything in this directory and sub- directories can be cached for a very long time? I would like to copy the same .htaccess file in each directory if possible. If this is possible would you recommend max-age over expires or both?

After reading many articles and some questions on here, I finally succeded in activating the Apache mod_expires to tell the browser it MUST cache images for 1 year . <filesMatch "\.(ico|gif|jpg|png)$"> ExpiresActive On ExpiresDefault "access plus 1 year" Header append Cache-Control "public" </filesMatch> And thankfully server responses seem to be correct: HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Fri, 06 Apr 2012 19:25:30 GMT Server: Apache Last-Modified: Tue, 26 Jul 2011 18:50:14 GMT Accept-Ranges: bytes Content-Length: 24884 Cache-Control: max-age=31536000, public Expires: Sat, 06 Apr 2013 19:25:30 GMT
