    Should browser clear cache when an applicaton is refreshed?

    I have been making some changes to an application which required me to refresh most of the java script in the application. When a user attempts to reopen the application, the application is failing because the browser is still caching some of the old js. Is there a way to force the browser to clear the cache when an application is rebuilt without having to have each user manually clear their cache? I didn't remember having to do this in Valence 4.1. Thanks in advance for your help.

    You can add a cache buster to your script tag source URL to force the browser to pull the latest.

    Example
    HTML Code:
    <html>
    <head>
        <script src="/resources/valence.js?cacheBust=2018.4.30.001"></script>
    </head>
    <body>
    </body>
</html>
