I have created a template for a standard report that I want in my wiki. In the template I am putting a unique ID. I am generating the unique ID using an extension with the php time function. To test, I put the XML tags on page so I could see the results. The extension does not get called because the browser has cached it locally. The content is no longer dynamic. Is there anything I can do on the server side to cause the browser to not use its cached version? The extension looks like a nice feature accept it can't deliver dynamic content.
MediaWiki is designed for dynamic editing of static content.
You will have to fight the wiki a lot trying to put dynamic content inside a wiki page. Please see the mailing list archives for past discussions.
