  1. Use Cache-Control headers: You can prevent caching by using Cache-Control headers in your HTML code. You can set the value of the Cache-Control header to "no-cache" or "no-store" to indicate that the browser should not cache the page.
  2. Use meta tags: You can also use meta tags in the header section of your HTML code to prevent caching. Add the following meta tags to your HTML code:
1
2
3
<meta http-equiv="Cache-Control" content="no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate">
<meta http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache">
<meta http-equiv="Expires" content="0">


  1. Disable caching in the browser: You can also prevent caching by disabling caching in the browser settings. In most browsers, you can do this by opening the developer tools (usually by pressing F12) and checking the "Disable cache" option in the network tab.
  2. Use a version number in the URL: Another way to prevent caching is to use a version number in the URL of your HTML page. By changing the version number every time you make changes to the page, you can ensure that the browser does not cache the old version.
  3. Use a query string parameter: You can also prevent caching by adding a random query string parameter to the URL of your HTML page. This will trick the browser into thinking that the page is different each time it is loaded, preventing caching.
