We use Apache + mod_cache for caching our website. Our mod_cache rule is such that it enables caching for all and then selectively certain url pattern is disabled (like some contexts). Currently the need is that if a certain cookie is present , the same url which was originally cached , should now be prevented from caching. Say I was caching xyz.com/a/b.html , but now if a certain cookie say NO-CACHE is present , the same xyz.com/a/b.html should not be served from cache. The url's which can contain NO-CACHE cookie is not limited (cannot be defined fully) and hence it looks like I need to check the presence of this cookie and then figure out a way to prevent (if the cookie is present) Apache from serving the content from cache.
Why a cookie? There's Cache-Control: HTTP header designed for this, not Cookie:
