Romain,
Try setting the HTTP Header field Cache-Control to
no-cache.
I found the code below at

http://www.zope.org/Members/rbeer/caching:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0
Transitional//EN">
<dtml-call "RESPONSE.setHeader('Expires', '-1')">
<dtml-call "RESPONSE.setHeader('Cache-Control',
'no-cache')">
<dtml-call "RESPONSE.setHeader('Pragma', 'no-cache')">
<HTML>
<HEAD><TITLE><!--#var title_or_id--></TITLE></HEAD>
<BODY>
