[Zope] Image Caching

[Smith, Neil]

I seem to remember having read something in the list before about problems
with caching of images, but I can't find it again.

Is there anything that would cause an image used multiple times on the page
not to be read from the cache?

I have a form that uses JavaScript to display itself, such that it can do a
sort of tabbed interface and add new lines to the form without going back to
the server.  This contains a  number of very small images that are
frequently repeated to build up the borders of the tabs etc.

This works well when used on the LAN, but I've now found that when used
across the internet, when the form redisplays itself, it takes forever to
build up the graphics, and you can see each individual image being slowly
loaded.  I'd thought it would have got the images from the cache.

It's Zope 2.4.3 running on NT4, just ZServer, no apache or anything, and the
browser is IE 5.

Any ideas?
