           Summary: Etag = "" (empty string) forces chrome to ignore
                    Cache-Control and never use cache
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Page Loading
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: stevethimmesch at hotmail.com


We use IIS6 and set the Etag = "" to (attempt to) disable etags and stricly use Cache-Control (max age).  This works fine in IE, Opera and FireFox.  Unfortunately, in Chrome and Safari it never caches the file and always requests it again from the server.
