ROR + Disable Browser Cache For Chrome & Safari !

Question

I am looking for method to disable Browser Cache for Chrome & Safari

I found following method,

Response.Cache.SetExpires(DateTime.Now.AddSeconds(5));
Response.Cache.SetCacheability(HttpCacheability.Public);
Response.Cache.SetValidUntilExpires(true);

and also for meta tag method.

But i am looking for simple method, to disable browser cache for entire website.

I faced the same problem and found a good solution and I blogged it to

http://www.fordevs.com/2011/10/how-to-prevent-browser-from-caching-a-page-in-rails.html

To add 'no-cache', add the following lines @ the application_controller.rb file

before_filter :set_no_cache

and the function

def set_no_cache
   response.headers["Cache-Control"] = "no-cache, no-store, max-age=0, must-revalidate"
   response.headers["Pragma"] = "no-cache"
   response.headers["Expires"] = "Fri, 01 Jan 1990 00:00:00 GMT"
end
